As you may have heard… or maybe you are just hearing now by reading this… Yovani Gallardo is done for the season. He tore his ACL yesterday while trying to avoid a kamikaze Reed Johnson. That kamikaze mission pretty much sealed the division for the Cubs. It is hard to be optimistic after losing two of your top four pitchers for the season (including Capuano). It is just a matter of time before a third (Ben Sheets) joins this group and Jeff Suppan is the “Ace”. Maybe Dave Bush will return and look spectacular. Maybe Jeff Weaver will return to a once promising form. Maybe Derrick Turnbow will come back in a starting role instead (note: this was a joke). Or maybe not.

Q: What’s Worse Than Getting Beat By 14?
A: Getting beat by one, at home, in the ninth, when your closer blows a 3-1 lead, against arguably your biggest current division rival, causing you to lose the series, after Bob Uecker sings “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” and says Brewers instead of Cubbies, before heading to St. Louis for a tough series against the division leaders, kicking off a tough month against the best in the West and the rest of the NL Central, in front of a bunch of worthless fans who decided throwing garbage and beer at Ryan Braun was a good idea, on a beautiful spring afternoon, the day one of your biggest stars returns to the lineup, your best pitcher throws a gem, the opposing starter appears to tear every tendon in his leg but returns to the hill, your catcher withstands a collision at home plate with Prince Fielder, and your manager nearly erupts into a classic tirade with the media after the game.
Also, of note…. sayonara Derrick Turnbow. Thanks for the saves back when you were good. Too bad we did not get the roll of nickels you were worth before last season. Now, we may have to pay someone to take you off our hands. Best of luck. Regards. Etc, etc.
