Cubs Held Hostage: Day 15-16

We here at Cut Jim Edmonds are not fooled about Jim's recent success at the plate. Two more days have passed, and the Cubs have won two more games for a season high 8-game winning streak.

On Sunday, Edmonds went 2-for-3 with 2 RBI in a 5-3 victory over the worst team in the National League. I didn't see the game, but Jim had a triple, but I'm sure it wasn't a true triple. I'm sure somebody misplayed a ball off the wall that would have been a single or double for Jim normally.

Yesterday, Jim found a way to leg out two more doubles. All of the sudden, Jim is hitting for a little power, but remember Petco has some crazy dimensions (Zambrano legged out a stand-up triple).

Overall, Jim has raised his smoking average to a smoking .208. I mean he is blowing away Mendoza at this point.

As a Cub, Edmonds is hitting .286 with an .876 OPS. He has 1 HR and 7 RBI in 12 games with the Cubs. So, he has probably bought himself over few weeks on the roster.

DON'T BE FOOLED. JIM IS GOING TO HURT US. TRUST ME!


Go Cubs!
