PANIC! Milton Bradley Lifted for Pinch Runner, Again

Chicago Cubs

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?
