Bradley Suspended

[skyking26]

I read Bradley of the Cubs has been suspended for the remainder of the season after he criticisized the club yesterday...


One has to wonder if they could have used Adam Dunn in the OF. He made it clear during the off-season that he would have loved to play for the Cubs as a contender but they basically snubbed him... Guess there was no need for the 37 HRS, 101 RBI's, 100 walks, and the high OB %, .280 BA.

Yea, Bradley's working out just fine......................

Re: Bradley Suspended

I basically like the guy (he swapped me at bat back in 2003), but, I agree, Dunn, whiffs and all, would have been better for the Cubs in '09. The best move of all, though, would have been to keep DeRosa and Wood. As good as Jim hendry was in putting together the 2003 team, he was that bad in organizing the 2009 roster.

Re: Bradley Suspended

DeRosa batting .253 and I just see him as a great solid durable player in the field. I think the Cubs didn't really need him and Wood should have been let go. The only thing the Cubs did wrong was letting Gregg start the season as closer and not Marmol. But in the long term unless Marmol can reign in his wildness he is not the long term answer either. Jeff Samardzjia future closer?

Re: Bradley Suspended

Bradey is a whiner and complainer. He will single handedly blacklist himself from baseball. His attitude stinks and he is not worth 10million a year.

Re: Bradley Suspended

When the Cubs signed him, what did they think they were getting? Everyone else knew they were signing a player who does stuff exactly like this.

Re: Bradley Suspended

Head case from head to toe..

He can't get out of his own way.

Lokee........$10,000,000 a year? He isn't worth $10,000 a year! No team he ever plays for ends up a winner.

EVERYWHERE he goes, he leaves in a cloudy disheveled wake of mess that he caused.

Re: Bradley Suspended

The Shark, IMO, is not closer material. Marmol is the best that the Cubs have. I like Berg, that is because I know him personally. I think with a little more experience, Jake Fox would make a great 3B or RF. But Tyler Colvin got called up in Milton's spot FYI.

Steve,

I wouldn't exactly say that! My local paper just ran a large article on how Bradley hit a game winning grand slam in the bottom of the 9th with a full count to win the eastern league championship for the Harrisburg Senators. It was 10 years ago. You're right though, he is a train wreck.

Re: Bradley Suspended

how can anyone justify paying this man 30 million for 3 years? its simply insane... i guess selling jerseys after 3 games and used baseballs is their way of recouping money... wonder how many jerseys it would take to recoup 30 million lolololol its hard to watch baseball these days...

Steve,

not sure about detective work. More like strange timing by my local newspaper. It was his anniversary of the HR bomb. Even still, that was 10 years ago, and he had a major meltdown during hishere. Some things never change-the guys still a dope!!

Re: Bradley Suspended

I see Bradley decided to accept his suspension. Especially since the Cubs decided it was well worth the $400K no to have to look at him.
Reading the post on ESPN. COM , I doubt they'll want him back.
