The Children Are The Future-Cubs Minor League Update Sponsored by Roto Rooter

Iowa Adrian Cardenas just keeps hitting and is up to .350. You are worthless Blake DeWitt. Chris Rusin had a great start working 8 innings and only allowing 2 hits while striking out 4. Brett Jackson is struggling a bit as of late and is only hitting .239 with a bit less power than you [...]

The Chicago Cubs continued their efforts to makeover their roster by claiming Adrian Cardenas from the Oakland A's and designating Blake DeWitt for assignment.

The Curious Case of Cardenas

The Cubs claimed infielder Adrian Cardenas off waivers today from the Oakland A's, where he was outrighted to make room for Johnny Gomes. To make room on the 40-man, the Cubs DFA'd Blake DeWitt.
