Cubs finally sign Milton Bradley

According to ESPN and sports radio in Chicago. It's about time, I hope he bats third.

Ha ha good for them ! I hope they still stink

Oh by the way I love the Redbirds

Really good signing for the Cubs. Chemistry issues aside, that guy can hit. It's unlikely he'll duplicate 2008's success, but there's no reason to think he won't have a good year.

The only place he's played with a similar market size in LA, and that didn't really bode well for him. For the Cubs' sake, hopefully it works out better.

In other news the cardinals have signed nobody and will suck again next year.

If he stays healthy and puts up better numbers than Fukudome...I'll be happy. Hopefully Reed Johnson can stay healthy too...the less Fukudome the better!

They need a guy that isn't scared to speak his mind once in awhile. That was part of their problem last year was too many nice guys in the clubhouse which may have lead to them becoming too laid back at times and content with the status quo.

Good sign I would say?

**mj4cy** · 01-05-2009, 03:47 PM

Sucks to be a cubs fan.

**ISU4ME** · 01-05-2009, 03:47 PM

Wait till next year!

**kcclones** · 01-05-2009, 03:47 PM

just hope he stays healthy. He doesn't have the benefit of DH

The problem is his mind is a little crazy. Bob Brenly just better be careful what he says, or Milton will come after him. During the game.

Yep maybe next year right HAHAHAHAHA
When the cubbies get to 10 WS titles then you can talk ****, but untill then you will be the lovable loser

Happy to see the bat, not so happy that the guy will be in the clubhouse all year. Maybe they can get him his own room. I have heard some seriously weird stuff about this guy over the years. Maybe he just wasn't in the right place and Chicago will work out well for him.
