As our good friend Paul Sullivan just reported this morning, the Cubs have sent some crap to Iowa and brought some crap back.  The difference this makes is going to be huge.

No, wait.  No it’s not.  But hey, it’s something.  Right?

The Cubs have recalled the greatest player in the history of the Pacific Coast League–Jake Fox, lefty reliever Jason Waddell (with his great 5.00 ERA at AAA) and shortstop Andres “Don’t call me Andy White” Blanco.

In order to make room for this giant ball of suck.  They had to clear three spots on the roster.

They did so by demoting Neal Cotts (he has to clear waivers, and he’ll have no problem doing just that), putting Aaron Miles on the disabled list (apparently he sprained his tongue with all of the sucking he’s been doing) and in the cruelest cut of all, they demoted Bobby Scales.

Hey, Bobby’s a good story and not a terrible player, but it’s no big deal to anybody but him that he’s heading back to Des Moines.  The reason I think it’s mean is that he got sent home from last night’s game because he’s got the shits.  That’s going to be a fun bus ride.
