Two in a row, but........

The Cubs have lost two one-run games in a row. Granted, they are still 18 game over .500 and still lead by 3.5 games. But all of the sudden the Cubs are visiting the trainer a little too much.

Here is a list of players currently on the DL or could be heading there:

Daryle Ward - Bad Back - who knows when we get his bat back and we really need. (I.E. Micah Hoffpauir's rook AB the last two nights).

Alfonso Soriano - Broken Finger - Probably not coming back until late July.

Carlos Zambrano - Shoulder - Oh please, oh please be nothing. We can't afford to be without Z for a long period of time.

Reed Johnson - Bad Back - our second player to come up lame with his back, but this would mean even more time for Jim Edmonds....oh wait I left somebody off the list.

Jim Edmonds - Bad foot, swing, defense, morals - Jim really just has a bad "arch" on his foot. Come on, sounds a bit fishy to me. Just when Jim was showing signs of life, he comes down when the Cubs are actually counting on him. I hate say it, but "I TOLD YOU SO!" He does have all those other things, but I can only prove the foot, defense and swing things, but we here at the CJE have PI's out and about trying to gather information about his morals.

Well, if we can't Cut Jim Emonds, maybe we can just DL him.
