Aaron Heilman

We can dream can't we? It's come to the point where I would trade Alfonso Soriano, Milton Bradley, and Aaron Heilman for a player to be named later. It's clear the Cubs (surprisingly) have some talent in the farm system and are ready for a shot at the big leagues. I know that Lou is waiting for Soriano to break out of his slump (as Lou says, "he's broken out of slumps .. uh ... in the past and performed .. uh .. great."), but this slump seems different as NL pitchers have finally figured out that Alfonso can only hit the fast ball for power AND watching him "play" left field induces serious nausea in this miserable Cubs fan.

Milton Bradley is done for '09. If you have to "retool" your swing in July, then I think some time in the minor leagues would be a huge plus for all associated with Mr. Bradley.
Aaron Heilman is done for good. I watched him get unmercifully shelled as the Mets tanked last year and this season's supposed New & Improved attitude and stuff is still the same. Heilman, it's time to break out the emory boards and the vaseline because your stuff is brutal.

My Crystal Ball Was Correct — Heilman Blows!

The day after the Cubs signed Aaron Heilman (1/31/09) I posted the following three videos with the heading "A Peak Into the Future - Welcome to Wrigley Aaron Heilman." My prediction has come to fruition as Heilman truly let the first game with the Cardinals get away with tons of walks and a horrible wild pitch. Can we package him with Milton Bradley and Alfonso Soriano to get an injured Mark DeRosa or Jake Peavey? Pretty please?!?!
