It's a damn shame that Soriano "gets it" and this ass clown doesn't yet.

Heilman has been claimed off of waivers by an NL club, while Harden was claimed off of waivers by a mystery club.

 

The Cubs have until Monday to work out trades.

Had he not heard the previous stories of this happening before? No one made you sign there dick, you could of gone to Tampa...but you wanted the cash.

Heilman?? Wow, someone must be VERY desperate for a bullpen arm/depth.

 

Harden could be intriguing, he could really help a contender needing a #3 or #4. Would the Cubs actually trade him away, telling their fans that they are officially giving up on the season?? Hes a free agent, so it would only save them a million or so, so it wont be for the money.

Our old friend Mike MacDougal comes in to close out a 5-4 game with 1 out in the 8th...

The smart move would be to move him. From my understanding their farm system isn't very deep and they could probably get a good A-ball prospect out of it. Like you pointed out he's a FA and I don't think the Cubs are even stupid enough to bring him back next year for anything longer than a one year, but he can probably get at least a 2 year on the market.

 

Even though he's a huge health risk, if KW can swing the extra million I wouldn't mind the Sox being the team if they give a A ball prospect up for him

nationals win 5-4, macdougal is 14 of 15 in saves, ERA just under 2.00 for WAS. Why the hell couldnt he do that here???

and the Cubs just lost 2/3 to the Nationals... so it's a bad start to that "easy" home schedule that was going to propell them back into the race!!

the national league makes pitchers look a hell of a lot better than they really are

Oh noooooooooo!

 

It's sad that this season has become so dismal that I'm back to checking out how bad the Cubs are.

Coop sux.

mike MacDougal with his 14th save and an ERA down to 1.98....man the National League blows my nutsack

He has the Javy Vazquez syndrome. He can't pitch at all in pressure situations/when a team is in a playoff hunt.

I think it's just NL syndrome.

How can you NOT love Milton Bradley? Barely slugging at a .400 clip (actually might be back under .400 after today), has completely destroyed the Cubs locker room, saying he just wants to play 9 innings and go home, calling Cubs fans racist, and today calling out guys like Lee and Soto for "giving politically correct answers". What an absolutely great guy, love him.

Really miss him in Texas dont they

Honestly, there's nothing wrong with that. Bradley strikes me as a guy who's misunderstood and is pissing off guys cas they're losing. That and he has sucked today.

No I think everyone understands Milton Bradley. Except for Jim Hendry of course. But the 6 other teams understood Bradley pretty well

This morning on the Mully and Hanley show, it was reported that Rich Harden was put on waivers and claimed by the Twins.

This Milton Bradley thing is yet another blind media flock.

 

He was brought he because he was a winner....yet he has never won anything and seems to piss off rather easily.

 

He was brought in to drive in runs....yet he has never been a run producer.

 

He is an OBP DH...the cubs sold him to their stupid fans as something he has never been and now they are blaming him for not being that.

 

I feel a little bad for the guy as he does lead the team in OBP.

 

He has not underproduced any worse then Soriano, Soto or Zambrano

huh, yesterday they were saying it was NL teams that claimed him and Heilmann

huh, yesterday they were saying it was NL teams that claimed him and Heilmann

I thought I heard NL team for Heilmann and unknown for Harden.

 

It will be interesting to see if they work something out. They should get good crowds because the last games in the Dome, but I could see them claiming him to block the White Sox or Tigers from getting him
