Do the Cubs need another second baseman? In a Rick Monday thread? Rick threw the first pitch at Sunday's Diamondbacks-Dodgers game, they showed the video on the jumbotron then.

From BA's early look at the 2007 draft class:

Doesn't make any sense for Hill not to be part of the ML Cubs at this point. How he didn't get the nod over Guzman (pushed 1 day back instead of 3), I'll never know. I wonder if Guzman is up as a "show-me" in a trade scenario. Probably not. He's up there because of his potential. I wish it was Hill instead, I don't think Gooz is ready.

Why is he unable to do that in the majors? who says he can't? he had more good innings than bad when he was up last year. Consistancy is the issue I guess. and sample size. And more negroes. Awesome. Haha.

I actually provided Slugger with the starters since she didn't know who would be starting. So, you're welcome. Oh, and Champion Broadband is the champion of sucky Internet connections. And kudos to Raisin for finding a computer in the office that doesn't block NSBB.

Yeah, I failed to take into account last night's rain out. My bad. He starts tomorrow.

Daytona and Jupiter are tied at 5 in extras. Jupiter scored 1 in the 9th to tie it up and each team scored once in the 10th. All other boxes are posted!

Way to have faith in me!

Drafted out of Baylor. Here are his stats at Baylor and the minors last season.

Geez, promote Guzman so he can throw long relief? Wow. Hill must have been in on whatever Hairston did to Dusty.

14-14 in the middle of the first. Go Bulls! Miami up 26-24 after 1.

On a 1-0 count, Pie grounded out sharply to first base. Ryan Theriot singled to LF, Matt Padgett doubled to LF. 1-0 Iowa after 1.

Because he's still rusty and catching up to where he was pre-injuries.
