Bradley will be available to pinch-hit this weekend as the Cubs take on the Reds and may return to the starting lineup early next week against Houston. 'First of all, he's feeling better, which is a good sign in itself,'' manager Lou Piniella said of the decision. ''Second of all, we really don't have many options. And third of all, we need him on the roster playing.''<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Fucking ridiculous. Put his pussy ass on the DL and give Fox some time in RF, that way at least the team options kicks in for 2011 so we can buy him out and dump his ass.

What are the details of the 2011 team option?

From Cot's Baseball Contracts:

"Milton Bradley of
2 years/$20M (2009-10), plus 2011 option
2 years/$20M (2009-10), plus 2011 option
signed by Chicago Cubs as a free agent 1/6/09
$4M signing bonus
09:$5M, 10:$9M, 11:$12M option
2011 may become $12M club option with $2M buyout based on Bradley's health
2011 option vests with 75 games played in 2009"

And the worst part about that, pinch hitting appearances count as games played. Hendry needs to step in here and force him to the DL.
