Sports Note:

I predict the Chicago Cubs will have a season of discontent and trouble in the clubhouse. Here’s why:

Sources: Cubs, Bradley agree to deal

The Chicago Cubs have agreed to a three-year, $30 million contract with free-agent outfielder Milton Bradley, sources told ESPN on Monday.

A switch-hitter, Bradley batted .321 with 22 homers for the Texas Rangers while leading the American League with a .436 on-base percentage. He made the All-Star team while serving primarily as the designated hitter.
Bradley

Playing with the Expos, Indians, Dodgers, Athletics, Padres and Rangers in a nine-year career, Bradley has batted .280 with 103 home runs and 399 RBIs. Injuries have allowed him to surpass 400 at-bats in a season only twice in his career.

If Bradley is so great, then how come this will be Bradly’s 7th team in 9 years?

Here’s why.

Bradley is a clubhouse cancer who can not stay healthy. If he gets a hangnail he goes on the DL for 2 weeks, sits around the clubhouse and causes trouble. Bradley is a first rate finger pointer, a me-first player who has no concept of how to play team ball, undermines his manager, and is a total jerk.

By June the Cubs clubhouse will be a soap opera due to this guy.

I pick the Cardinals now to win the division.
