It's surprising Thrill doesn't have a shampoo recommendation thread.

Mike Martz quit citing philosophical differences.

Someone in the Bears organization sent out an email claiming that Descartes was full of shit.

[Kermit IV]

Mike Martz quit citing philosophical differences.

I read this as, "Mike Martz, quit citing philosophical differences!"

And I laughed.

Gone.

Volstad in return.
Cubs to eat between $15-$18 of remaing $18 (reports vary.)

Unless we're scoring by height or Volstad has post-post-post hype sleeper value, this is basically just a buyout.

Funny. I always thought I'd give a shit if Zambrano left.

He's been a little below average according to ERA+ and mediocre according to WAR, but he's averaged about 30 starts the last three years and has a few seasons of team control left.  There's some long-shot upside since he's only 25 and might magically learn how to strike out more than 6.4 per nine under the tutelage of the great Chris Bosio.  They could do a lot worse at the back end of the rotation.  Like Casey Coleman.
