Around SBN: Steve McNair Found Shot to Death


Cubs/Wrigley promotions Aug. 29 and 30.

I've searched but cannot find the promotion info for these dates.  Bob mentioned some sort of 10 item food donation for the 29th and receive an autograph.  Does anybody have any additional information?  Also I haven't heard any sort of promotional info for the 29th, but was just wondering since I'll be there these two days.

Go Cubs Go, Go Cubs Go.  Hey Chicago Whaddaya say?  The Cubs are gonna win today.

Thanks, that is exactly what I was looking for.

And I goofed up because that is actually on the 30th. So does anybody know if there is any kind of promo on the 29th?

Thanks Al,

I already checked there though, but they didn’t have anything listed even though the food donation thing is going on.

Sometimes they add promos not on the schedule.

The food pantry thing isn’t really a giveaway, as it is set up outside the park and handled by the Cubs’ Wives, not the organization itself.

It’s a worthy cause — three years ago I donated $20 and got a Greg Maddux signed photo.

Aramis Ramirez and Reed Johnson during warm ups at their rehab assignment with the Peoria Chiefs at Kane County.  Aramis Ramirez missed a home run by about 2 feet at his first at bat and ended up with a stand up double.  He later took a base-on-balls and scored twice. Reed Johnson also had a hit and scored.  Here are the rest of the photos.

It's more walk-off magic for the Cubs, when a bases-leaded walk to Jake Fox gives them the 2-1, extra-innings win.

It's yet another episode of "Outfield Adventures", starring Milton Bradley, as he'd lose this Jason Kendall-hit ball in the sun Friday against the Brewers.

Jeff Suppan is thrown out by Kosuke Fukudome in the seventh inning of the Cubs 2-1 win.

Buster Olney said a few days ago that the Braves would entertain offers for their 26 year old shortstop (who makes 450k) Yunel Escobar. He is a plus bat, a solid defender, and would move Theriot to his more appropriate position at second.

They are looking for a bat in return. Apparently Cox doesn't like the guy. 

I couldn't even speculate what we'd have to send them in return, but I think he would be a good fit given his low salary, his productive bat, his position, and his age.  I don't care if he's a jerk if he makes the team win more.

What would it take?
