Yeah, I got the feeling Fernando was chowing down on all the sugary cereals. He claims it’s his “favorito” but I’m not buying it. Doesn’t make this video any less fun. Oh, and check out Mexican Wade Boggs in the beginning of the spot.

Cubs vs. White Sox Notes

Exciting Cubs/Sox game today. Home Runs by DLee and Soto–and their overall performance lately–should give Cubs fans a boost.
But the way it ended was just plain odd. Matt Thornton got to 1-2 on Soriano by throwing nothing but fastballs. Then he threw another for ball 2...

Here’s to you, Chicago. Many towns may still celebrate their cheaters (See St. Louis, Mark McGwire), but according to a Chicago Tribune poll, Chicagoans are truthers. I love it.
Good job, Chicago.

“Juice, don’t give up now!”
I remember where I was when this went down. I was working at a local restaurant and was stealing glimpses of the Rockets/Knicks game. I came back at one point and there was a mass huddling around a big screen TV. Then I saw the OJ chase...

From Circling the Bases via Wrigleyville 23:
I’ve got good news and bad news for Royals fans.
First the good news: Reliever Kyle Farnsworth had his finger bandaged on Tuesday after being bitten by his bulldog.
The bad news? The wound was on his non-pitching hand.

Check out this clip from “Beisbol ‘86″ and Channel 26 before it was “The U”. Interesting choice of music for a Spanish-spoken baseball program. But you can’t fault them too much, Huey Lewis was the man in the mid-80’s, right? Also, it’...

Just wanted to hand out some kudos to some of the Cubbies.
Congrats to Alfonso Soriano on his OBP falling below .300. Also, congrats that he is now hitting just .229.
Congrats to his manager, Lou Piniella. He has been in baseball for 73 years but says he doesn’t know what to...

Slow Starts Are Now Bad Seasons: Pitchers Edition
June 12, 2009 by

Time to look at the pitchers…
Francisco Liriano, Twins. He’s still not right, as evidenced by his 2-7 record and 5.99 ERA.
Jon Garland, D’Backs. Some White Sox fans wanted him back. Careful what you wish for. Garland has more walks than Ks, and ERA of 5.61 and a WHIP...

Those numbers look ugly. And while there is still time to turn it around, it can no longer be considered a “slow start”. It’s now just a bad season. Sorry to break it to you, and these hitters:
Geovany Soto, Cubs. Last year’s ROY is this year’s Sophomore...

I was a bit surprised to read that the Cardinals might be interested in obtaining Miguel Tejada.
“Tejada fits the profile of what the Cardinals are seeking — an offensive deterrent capable of playing multiple positions. The Astros are experiencing financial problems and could...

I’m not a good Cubs fan these days. I don’t really enjoy watching them play. It’s more of a chore. Most of the games are boring, dreadful or both. That includes the ones they win. I harbor secret (well there goes that) hopes that the Cubs will lose 10 straight and...
