August 19, 200322 yr If he helps them win one game via pinch running or what not, it's totally worth it
August 19, 200322 yr I think this is the lineup the Cubs are shooting for: 1B: Doug Mientkiewicz 2B: Tony Womack SS: Rey Ordonez 3B: Jeff Cirillo LF: Terrence Long CF: Doug Glanville RF: Sammy Sosa C: Mark Johnson 2003--Year of The North Side Hitmen
August 19, 200322 yr C: Mark Johnson I don't know about Mark. I think Buffalo Grove native Josh Paul has made some tremendous strides at the plate this year.
August 19, 200322 yr Speaking of Mark, I haven't seen him play a single game this year. Is he injured, or not good enough for the A's?

These are his stats in AAA Sacramento. From what I remember, he calls a great game but not many teams can afford to keep his bat in the lineup.

August 19, 200322 yr Womack deal Jim Hendry must of been spending long nights on the phone again...................... . What a horrible trade. That article is good at pointing out how capable Martinez and Grudzilanek are of playing second base. No matter how vital you think these players are, it really disrupts your clubhouse chemistry to constantly be adding players and switching positions. How can your pitcher feel confident on the bump when he doesnt know half the infielders behind him? Hendry seems to be quick on the trigger, willing to add anybody at a moments notice. Whats even worse is nearly all these acquisitions: Womack,Lofton,Simon,Ramirez might not even be there next season. I realize the same situation could be said about Alomar and Everett, but Kenny Williams moves were made to fill obvious gaps in our lineup. The Sox moves were seen as ligitimate, rather then a move for the sake of making one. :fthecubs
August 19, 200322 yr Getting Womack isn't as dumb as them acquiring Simon and putting Choi down in the minors.
