With the Cubs playing highly irritating-to-watch baseball right now, it’s time to grasp at any positives we can. If you missed yesterday’s game, you saved yourself some pain. However, you did miss some awesome Sam Fuld highlights. Look what Fuld can do in left field that a certain other player (I’ll give you a hint: [...]

3:19:15 PM: About to make the 90 mile trip to Peoria. Heading down with fellow #Cubs fan and friend of the blog, Ian.
5:44:24 PM: 10th row is really 5th row. Right on top of the away dugout. I’m sure the guys in green can admit Peoria smells better than Clinton.
5:56:22 PM: Since [...]

It seems that ever since Carlos Zambrano admitted to being lazy, the anti-Zambrano crowd has ratcheted things up quite a bit. Of course, many of these people are the same ones that were giddy about his no-hitter last year and putting him in the race for the Cy Young the last few years. These are [...]

I walked down to Petco field and bought my tickets just now. It’s a really cool looking stadium. Very open and clean. I purchased tickets very close to the cubs bullpen. I know Gregg has been officially ousted from the closer position, but if he so much as thinks about warming up, I’m gonna jump [...]

I am going to San Diego to see the Cubs play the Padres tonight. If I see Kevin Gregg I’m taking a golf club to his throwing arm. Hell, it might improve his pitching.

I shouldn’t be writing this post. I stayed up late for this West Coast game simply because I wanted to hear the Cubs win a 1-0 game. It would have been the first of the season. Enter, Kevin Gregg.
