MOSTLY CUBS

Look for the cubs to shut down ANTHONY RIZZO because of his lingering back problems. he's scheduled for a MRI today and methinks a bulging or ruptured disc may be the problem and if so, no sense risking further damage. do what you have to do medically and be ready for 2015. 

JORGE SOLER of the cubs has one of the prettiest swings i've seen in a long time, short and to the point, unlike the wide looping swing of JAVY BAEZ.

baez was quoted recently "i don't care if i strike out three hundred times, i'm chopping wood every time i'm up there." does that  sound remarkably similar to STARLIN CASTRO? 'uncoachable' is not a word you want stuck on you early in your career but i think baez has joined that club. there is NO WAY that super egos baez & castro can exist in the same locker room.  look for castro to be traded for pitching help.

speaking of castro, he scored zero points with the bosses or his teammates the other night when he failed to run after hitting what he thought was a home run with the cubs trailing 6-4. problem was the ball bounced off the fence 400 feet away and castro only got a single and as we all know, this isn't the first time he's done that. next hitter got a single which would have tied the game. ouch.

RICK RENTERIA blew a chance to show the new kids that that type of behavior won't be tolerated by letting castro stay in the game AND start the next day. the simple learning tool was yank him immediately for his lack of hustle and sit him the next day. then EVERYONE understands that selfish bullshit and hot dogging won't be tolerated.

ok, gotta be fair to the girls.  THE CHICAGO SKY forced a deciding game in the eastern conference finals by beating the INDIANA FEVER 78-74 in double overtime. the big game is wednesday night in indianapolis.  good luck.

gotta run. more later.
