Milton Bradley was lifted in his first Spring start for a pinch runner after a walk in his first at bat. Much gnashing of teeth and terror ensued.
Flash forward to today, where Bradley was once again lifted for a pinch runner early in the game.
At least this time it was in the fourth inning, and there isn’t yet a hint of injury. But still, is this guy ever going to be allowed to run the bases? Is he the new Kirk Gibson?

Why it's a lot tougher to sell guys for value now than you might think, even if they offer their new team more starts in 2013.

It turns out the Cubs might not have done it if they'd known the extent of Shawn Camp's injury.

Each of The Big Three were in action yesterday, finally, and each had a notable performance. Also: looking ahead to the second round of the Draft.

Doesn't matter if you hold them to one. Can't win if you don't score.

Also pitch count debates, Mariano Rivera's ridiculousness, increased shifting in baseball, and so much more.

With him pretty much saying he doesn’t give a crap about ST and how he just wants to be healthy, I think he’s just going to take himself out all the time.
Which is pretty much how it should go. If he’s ready to go in April with minimal ST, fine with me.
I agree.
