The NL Central, which is apparently trying to become the new AL East, acquired its second big name in as many days on Tuesday, as Oakland traded RHP Sean Gallagher, OFs Matt Murton, 2B Eric Patterson, and single-A catcher Josh Donaldson to the Cubs for pitchers Rich Harden and Chad Gaudin.Gallagher seems to be the headliner going to the A's. He doesn't turn 23 until December...

As a Cubs fan, I am actually looking forward to the MLB All-Star game. After years and years of caring less and less about this game, I have never been so optimistic about the game. Alfonso Soriano, Kosuke Fukudome, and Geovany Soto were all voted onto the starting team while Ryan Dempster, Carlos Zambrano, Kerry Wood, and Aramis Ramirez will begin the game on the bench. It's...

Will update later on, but the trade is official.
Cubs get Rich Harden and Chad Gaudin
A's get Sean Gallagher, Matt Murton, Eric Patterson and Josh Donaldson
Not bad at all in my opinion.

The Sun-Times told us that we could buy playoff tickets if Zambrano's start tonight went as one would hope. Well, buy those tickets. 6 innings, 4 hits, 0 runs, 2 walks, 5 strikeouts. I'd hold off on buying the tickets just yet, but the Cubs did extend their lead in the division to 3.5 games over the Cardinals. The Cubs won 2-1 as Fukudome hit a 1st inning home run and...

He got a standing ovation from the home crowd on Friday night. By Saturday, he was just another no-good Cub.
Don't dog the man because he likes a light and refreshing drink! Welcome back to St. Louis, Jimmy.

This just in minutes ago: the Chicago Cubs have acquired Rich Harden from the A's. Just days after the Brewers made news with the acquisition of (CC) C. C. Sabathia, today the Cubs have landed a top pitcher of their own in Rich Harden and Chad Gaudin for Sean Gallagher, Matt Murton, Eric Patterson, and a minor leaguer Josh Donaldson.
The only surprise in this one for the Cubs...

As the winningest manager in Cardinals' history, Tony La Russa sure seems to have an image problem. For a man who once admitted that he takes everything personal because anything less means you aren't giving it your all, he still comes off as an enigma. He's the proponent of old-school baseball, played the right way with "purity", even though he sees nothing...

I'm going to bed, game tied 5-5, Cardinals and Brewers won, Cubs should have won, but Marmol gave up a 3-run home run in the 7th that tied the game up. I'm guessing they lose.

The Cubs lead over the Cardinals in the actual standings is 3.5 while the Brewers are 4 out. 3rd order winning percentage has the Cubs with quite an advantage over the Brewers (6.2 games) and the Cardinals (6.8 games). So if anyone is wondering why I really don't care that the Brewers got Sabathia, it's partly because of the 4.0 they are out, the 6.2 they are out in the...

On June 2nd the Cubs began a 32 game stretch with 23 away from home, 15 against AL opponents, and generally speaking, some pretty good teams (a few were not). After games on June 1st the Cubs had a 2.5 game lead over the Cardinals. The Cubs went 17-15 during this stretch of play and now have a 3.5 game lead over the Cardinals and Brewers who are tied for 2nd place. So while we...
