to wait for the next edition of Dan's Random Sports Thoughts. I'm simply too busy helping Jim Hendry figure out a way to add Bronson Arroyo to the Cubs' offensive attack. Oh wait... if he was on the Cubs, he wouldn't get to hit against Glendon Rusch, would he? Oh well, it was a good thought.
Have a nice night...

Let's see, thru 3 1/2 innings Glendon Rusch gave up 4 solo HR's while the Cubs best scoring chance is a double by Rusch against the mighty Bronson Arroyo. Well, we better get that new and improved bullpen in there to help out. Thank you Jim Hendry for keeping Will Oh-Man we'll try him first. Oops, two straight singles, a passed ball, walk, grand slam and solo HR and the score is now 9-0. Oh yeah, and Jacques Jones goes down with an hammy. At least Pat & Ron confirmed that Felix Pie hit a grand slam and will be up before the year is out. Just remember it's only April...It's a long season...That's why they play the games...Where's Larry Biitner when you need him?
I'm going to bestow Glendon Rusch with the "Shawn Estes Award for Excellence in the field of Ineptitude". I was really hoping for good things for Rusch this year. It's getting harder and harder to support him.
I just got home from that fiasco on the North Side. After Rusch gave up 2 HR in the 1st 2, we couldn't wait to see who would get the HR in the 3rd...Bronson Arroyo...again. Doesn't he wish he could face Rusch every outing? Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Arroyo only have 2 hits in his major league career? I know we swept the Cards, but this team had nothing even remotely close to an offense today, and I fear that this is going to be the norm rather than the exception.
As our fearless leader reminded me last night - "It's only one game." I mean come on, how many times will Arroyo bat against Rusch in the season? My guess is not again.
1) Larry Biitner, great reference... love Biitner!
2) I went to all 3 Cubs/Cards games, my record stands as a perfect 3-0.... memo to McPhail: send me season tickets :)
