Hello again, everybody. It has been a few weeks, but it’s Friday, and I am back. So, let’s get together, and throw out some quick thoughts and observations about our favorite baseball team. There is a lot going on, and at any minute now the Chicago Cubans could really start taking shape.
Nonetheless, news could start breaking any minute so let’s get moving.
• After trolling around the rumors and comments, it seemed there was some hesitation in a Byrd for Prado trade. Um. Am I missing something? Done, done, done, done, done.
• I cannot fathom the Braves executing this trade, but I would hop on it in a heartbeat.
• I think the second-half of the 2011 season will most likely pigeonhole Barney as a career backup. It was just way too reminiscent of Theriot’s multiple August swoons.
• So, the Cubs could really use a second baseman, like, well, Martin Prado.
• Okay, I will leave it alone before he becomes Brian Roberts or Jake Peavy in my obsessive mind.
• Calm and settle, Manny Corpus is...
