The Byrds

This week, we welcome the addition of Marlon Byrd to the Chicago Cubs. He’s an outfielder and has trained with the new hitting coach for a long time. This is going to be a good year for them, because we hopefully have found the guy that will be able to fill up the center field […]

Cubs or Nationals?

Which team would you rather play for? The Cubs or the Nationals? There is a lot of talk right now about the future of Matt Capps. It seemed possible that Capps was going to come in as a great set-up man for the Cubs this year. But the announcement of the signing was much too […]

Zambrano to Go?

Although he has a no-trade clause in his contract, there are reports that Carlos Zambrano was the subject of a discussion between the Cubs and the Yankees last week. Let’s be clear, his agent and Cubs representatives say that this isn’t the case. This would lead us to wonder what the source of the rumor […]

My Bad

Jim Hendry came out and apologized for the fact that the Milton Bradley trade didn’t work out the way it was supposed to for the 2009 season. Today it was announced that they had inked a deal with Seattle to get Bradley out of town and bring in a pitcher named Carlos Silva who might […]

Matt Capps or Madcaps?

The Pirates have struggled a lot lately, but their closer was very talented in previous years. He had a tough time this season, but in previous seasons was fairly dominant. The rumor is that the Cubs might […]

Trades?

The Cubs were relatively quiet at the winter owners meeting this week. There was a lot of buzz that they were going to trade Milton Bradley here or there, but nothing has happened yet. The Rangers haven’t taken him and neither have the Mets, Rays, or anyone else. It’s become the talk of the city […]

Bradley

We’ve been looking for Milton Bradley to end up getting sent out of town for awhile now. It’s going to be a big year for him in some other city, it seems. He just never quite connected with Chicago, but he might just be a better fit somewhere else in the league. For example, possible […]

Fox and Miles Gone

Just like that, two of this year’s players are out the door, sent to the Oakland A’s. Aaron Miles was most likely to be send off somewhere this year. He struggled with the Cubs and hopefully will find the shakeup helpful for him to get back into his rhythm. The surprising loss was Jake Fox, […]
