i know theres a break down somewhere in this thread but i'm too lazy and fat to find it. what have been bradleys injuries during his career? i know the latest one was legit and i'm pretty sure the others were too.

what i'm getting at is, he's not a pussy right? he's had some real injuries and it's not mental right?

There are some real injuries in there. Also some pussy injuries. Given what we've dealt with in 2004-2006, I can't imagine Cub fans having much patience for pussies.

Milton got a big ovation at the convention

Lou's happy to have his on-base percentage and he said "we've just gotta keep him healthy."

Demp's thrilled to have him.

Alf says, "he a good playa"

During my drive today, I heard a segment of Murph's show with the Stats Inc. guy. DeWon brought up an interesting stat about the percentage of ab's with the platoon advantage. The Cubs were last in all of baseball with only 47% of their ab's with the platoon advantage. Tampa Bay had the best rate at 69%. I think this had a lot to do with with both the Bradley and Miles signings, as well as the DeRosa trade. Against right handers we should always be able to have three quality left handed bats in the lineup, and eight quality bats in the lineup against lefties.

Interesting stat. Didn't we lead the majors in runs scored last year?
I know that the platoon advantage is a real stat...maybe we'll score even more this year.

[Clapp]

I'm watching Milton Bradley bat, with Lou analyzing it, and they're talking about Gerald Perry.

[Clapp]

And Bradley has a 7 pitch at bat, rbi double into deep left-center batting left-handed. Way gone at Wrigley.

[Clapp]

This great. Next at bat, Bradley singles, limps his way to first with a hamstring injury.

Now, Jay Payton goes yard and they show Perry celebrating in the dugout. Lou: "Look at Gerald Perry! I had him in Seattle. He works very hard with these hitters."
