Bleed Cubbie Blue

I'm getting antsy for tonight's game, so as of now all I can report to you is that the Cubs and Brewers may be close to a deal for OF/1B/PH John Vander Wal, who is currently hitting .278/.374.504, .878 OPS in 248 at-bats. Apparently this would involve no more than a B-level prospect on the Cubs' part.

Gosh, I'd drive the guy to the airport myself. Vander Wal is one of the majors' best pinch hitters and we could only hope that this would mean the release of Lenny F. Harris.
