Former Cub news

For any remaining Matt Murton fans out there, I found a little tiny blurb in yesterday's flood of information and disinformation from the winter meetings. Seems Mr. Murton finally found a team that will give him playing time to prove he really does have skill. Of course, to find this team he had to leave the North American continent. The Hanshin Tigers of the Central League in Japan thought he was good enough to purchase his contract from Colorado. Forgive me if this has already been posted, my internet connection is far too slow over here (Afghanistan) and I have far too little patience to have looked, so if I'm stepping on someone or recapping a recap I'm sorry and go ahead and blast me for it. I would post a link, but I can't even remember under what pile of information I dug this up from.

baseball is a game of outs......pop out, ground out, line out, pitch out, strike out, fly out, and Fox and Bud's favorite black out
