PLAYERS: Aramis Ramirez
TEAMS: Chicago Cubs

For the second night in a row, this Fan's first-ever bout with insomnia ever is getting really...well...tiresome. It's truly amazing the things you think about when prone in a bed for hours attempting to find that magic solution to falling asleep. At one point the thoughts drifted back to the mid-1970s when a slack-eyed teenager from New Jersey went away to New Hampshire College. It was there that the first experiences with fragrance and love occurred.New Hampshire College in Manchester was a very new college when this writer first arrived there. Only a few hundred students lived on the campus in those early years and it was definitely a party school. It was mostly a dumping ground for rich kids then as the school didn't even require an SAT score to attend. While your Fan was far from rich, it was the only application a lazy teenager managed to finish during high school.

New Cub Stewart will replace Ramirez at third

Via AP on Fox  |  December 09, 2011
Ian Stewart is glad to be in Chicago. He just doesn't necessarily subscribe to the philosophy in baseball where a struggling player can leave one franchise and recapture his talent in a new locale. Stewart hit 25 homers two years ago for the Colorado Rockies but last year batted only .156 as he battled injuries and was demoted to Triple-A. He was traded along with minor league...

Cubs Land Stewart, Weathers From Rockies

Via Cub Reporter  |  December 09, 2011
The long rumored deal to nab Ian Stewart from the Rockies went down last night, and the Cubs also received pitcher Casey Weathers in the deal. The cost? Tyler Colvin and D.J. LeMahieu. To the analysis... Ian Stewart was dreadful last year, absolutely a dreadful to the tune of a .465 OPS in 136 PA's that Colvin even managed to beat (.509 in 222 PA's). He did put up a .950...
