Milton Bradley Reports Early

Notes from Day 3 in Mesa so far...
  • Milton Bradley has arrived in Mesa early! Bradley was eager to get a head start according to Carrie Muskat.
  • Reed Johnson lost 14 pounds this off season!
  • Other Cub position players who have already reported include Ryan Theriot, Mike Fontenot, So Taguchi, Reed Johnson, and Darwin Barney.
  • According to the Sun-Times, Mike Stanton could make the team as the second left hander in the pen if Marhsall is in the rotation.
  • Harden will pick and choice when he needs to rest in 2009.
  • Speaking of Harden, he threw off a mound today for the first time, and had no problems.
  • The only pitcher who has not reported is Luis Vizcaino, who had visa problems.

I'll keep you posted on the happenings in Arizona.

  1. do u think rich Harden will stay healthy throught the year? also who do u think eill win the catching job.

    I say hill will win and I think harden can stay healthy if he throws 6-7 innings and 80-90 pitches a game.

  2. No, I don't think Harden will be healthy all year long. Some injury will come up. I'd like to see Koyie be the back-up, but I think the Cubs are more likely to choose the veteran.
