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.

7/3:Cubs vs. Brewers 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. Damen Jackson (Cubbie Nation)

7/3:Cubs vs. Brewers 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. Damen Jackson (Cubbie Nation)

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?
