Ok, so Ryan Freel is excited to be a Cub... thats great! Praise Jesus! As Pedro Cerano would say "Ah Jesus, I like him very much, but he is no match for curveball." Fix another broken bone with a bandaid Jim Hendry, and watch your team and city cringe with angst yet again. Aramis Ramirez and Big Z go down giving their usual 300% while Derek Lee tied his shoe funny and sits on the bench because of a twinge in his neck. We all got problems, please don't put neosporin on it and then rub dirt over it, it defeats the purpose.
The Cubs have effectively won 10 of their last 13 games, to which I say huzzah! You are 6 games over .500 and in a 4 way tie for first place, that happened once before remember? On April 5th? I remember, it was the day before the season opened. So a month and a half into the season we have shuffled the deck a bit, won some and lost some.
The 2009 Cubs can be great. The 2008 Cubs WERE great, and failed at the last moment. Are we on the upswing? Are the Cubby faithful getting our hopes up just to get them crushed yet again? One question... Micah Hoffpaur what? give the man some PT!! and Ryan Theriot, keep doing your thing man.
With Aramis out for an undisclosed amount of time, and Big Z on the shelf for a little while, I believe our kingpin will be Milton Bradley. I lost faith in him early on this year, but if he can put a month together and hit the ball where people ain't, like he is capable of doing, we can win 20 of our next 25 games.
