What’s That Sucking Sound?

Oh, it’s just Milton Bradley, who’s been dropped from third to sixth in the Chicago Cubs batting order.
The move was made prior to Monday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, where he hiked his average up to .238 after going 2-for-4 with an RBI. The switch-hitting outfielder, known for his friendly, fun-loving team spirit, is a shoddy 3-for-20 on their current road trip.
Skipper Lou Piniella will give him Tuesday and maybe even Wednesday off to work with hitting coach Von Joshua on his left-handed swing.
This will also give him some time to prepare himself for BLB’s next VooDoo Sabermetrics, where Bradley is the guest of honor this Friday! Can’t wait for that one.
Speaking of the Cubs, check out The Friendly Blogfine’s latest Random Retro Cub: Hector Villanueva. Great mustache.
