Bad day for both chicago teams for different reasons. The sox continue to field poorly. Its not only errors. Zambrano down as soto is back.

If the cubs wanted walks from their 30 million dollar man, now a 2 hitter, they could have signed mickey rooney for almost nothing.

Mark buehrle has 133 wins. He needs 2 more wins this season to average 15 wins a year in 9 full seasons. AL tougher than NL. Pick zam or bur

Cubs have not won a series from a plus 500 team in 3 months. They will hold off cards. Jake fox can out hit milton. Will he play.

Zambrano has 103 wins in 7.67 seasons. He needs 9 more wins this year to get to 112 in 8 years. He would then average 14 wins per year.

NL slugging percentage leaders-ibanez 2nd-dunn 5th. Dunn has 29hrs and 81rbi. Abreau hitting 322 with 76 rbi. All are lefty run producers.

Congrats go out to tom gorzelanny. Coming over from the pirates, the local guy who grew up a sox fan has found a home on the north side.

The cubs are catching the reds at the right time. Jason marquis continues to pay dividends for the cubs. He hit scott rolen in the head ...

Cubs have 61 games left with just 21 vs teams over 500. The road to playoffs is easier than that of the cardinals. Astros and brewers done.

Jim hendry said it wasnt fair to milton bradley when he hears trade rumors. Is it less fair to the four sox players in the tribune article.

I wonder if kenny williams will hold a press conference to deny the floyd, richard, ramirez, and flowers for halliday.

Sam zell just said on cnbc that the cub sale should be resolved rather quickley. He also named tom ricketts as the quote---leading buyer.

Both sox and cubs looking for the same thi ng. Both could use a lefty in the pen. Both general managers are aggressive. Deals likley.
