If Ted Lilly Is Traded?
I’ve said many times Ted Lilly has been the staff ace since signing a four-year deal in 2006. But it’s likely his outing Tuesday night was his last as a Chicago Cub. The Twins, Tigers, and Yankees are heavy favorites to trade for Lilly before Saturday’s deadline. Lilly’s record with Cubs: 2007: (15-8)–3.83 ERA–207.0 IP [...]
Cubs Shutout Padres at HoHoKam Water Park
Five pitchers combined to throw a five-hit shutout, and Vismeldy Bieneme reached base four times, stole two bases, and scored three runs, as the AZL Cubs blanked the AZL Padres 3-0 in a game that was played in a steady monsoon drizzle at Dwight Patterson Fiekld at HoHoKam Park Tuesday night.

Happier times at Wrigley Field
I made this video with great optimism at the beginning of this season. 2010 has turned out to be a downer for us Cub fans for sure. By any measure this season has been a grave disappointment for fans of the Northsiders. I think maybe the Blackhawks success may have even contributed to the lofty [...]

Play of the Day: Ted Drops an Awesome Bomb on Michael Bourn
It should not be surprising that Ted Lilly was awesome in his probable final start as a Chicago Cub. It should also not be surprising that the Cubs couldn't score to save their lives, that the Astros' go-ahead run scored without a hit, or that Lance "Fat Elvis" Berkman would remember for the first time this year that he is supposed to be a good hitter.
So even though the squeeze play that broke the tie or the Berkman grand slam were bigger plays, today's Play of the Game is...

Game One Hundred One - Cubs 1 Astros 6
WP - Brett Myers (8-6) LP - Andrew Cashner (1-4) Save - None
Once again Ted Lilly did everything he could to post a win ... and once again the offense gave him zero support. In what was likely Ted Lilly's last game in a Cubs' uniform he left with two outs in the sixth after not allowing a run.
Ted Lilly entered Tuesday night with the lowest run support in all of baseball ... and the Cubs' patheti...
Grilling Food for the Week – the Single Man’s Diet

Good Times with Ted
By all accounts, Ted Lilly will be an ex-Cub by Saturday's trading deadline, in which case tonight's start at Houston will be his last for the team. Signed in December, 2006 after finalizing a deal with Cubs GM Jim Hendry moments before Hendry underwent an angioplasty, Lilly will go down as one of the GM's savvier acqui...
