All Things Go (to the Bullpen)
The recent news that Lou Piniella is moving Carlos Zambrano to the bullpen sent shockwaves across baseball that are certainly being felt by Cubs fans. Sheps and I devoted a bunch of time to the topic in today’s episode (download – mp3), so please tune in for some interesting debate on the move.
In the meantime, though, I wanted to highlight a couple of awesome threads on our message board. We talked a little bit about it last week, but I can’t tell you how proud I am of all the fans on our forum — it’s one of the most intelligent places on the internet that passionate Cubs fans are discussing and debating the team. If you’re not yet on the message board, feel free to join up (the register link below).
Kudos to everyone that is adding to the conversation. Hopefully the Cubs can take advantage of the Brewers this weekend. Go Cubs!

This is a dumb move by Jim Hendry and the Cubs. Just think if the Cubs had done this 2 or 3 years ago. It would have caused a world war. Ha.

Lou and Shepps,
Guys I disagree with whoever said that Big Z is lowest on the totem pole so he was moved to the ‘pen. The bullpen is just so turrible (Charles Barkley spelling) that the team wanted someone really good to help solidify it for the next few weeks. Nothing more, nothing less.

Lou,
Thanks for the RBI Baseball 3 shout-out!

Hey Swango,
No prob. I was going to try and get some theme music from RBI3 but forgot. Gotta love playing as the Cubs 84 and 89 playoff teams
thanks for tuning in,
Lou

Marshall sure didn’t look too good last night……I’d take my chances with Z in that role.
