All Brewers fans must be pretty happy about this
It seems that, for the most part, they despise Yost. (And with good cause!)

Slightly OT: Big Z/Theriot
Someone in yesterday’s game thread mentioned the fact that Theriot was one of the first to give Z a big hug and then alluded to how winning cures all animosity or something. Did I miss something that happened between those two??
"I love when they play that Go Cubs Win song."
Zambrano was not happy
that Theriot didn’t throw out Pence on a grounder in his previous start. Supposedly led to Zambrano showing him up and players not being happy about it.
I love to play baseball. I'm a baseball player. I've always been a baseball player. I'm still a baseball player. That's who I am. - Ryne Sandberg
