Chicago Cubs

By rss@youtube.com (FamilyGuyFan94) good inning for Rich Harden, he was good up until the 5th or 6th when he was close to giving up a run. The cubs won in the 11th. but it was not counted as a win for Rich Harden although he did amazing. Reed Johnson made a walkoff RBI in the 11th getting the Cubs on a 2 game winning streak winning their ser...

It should have come as no great surprise that the Cubs did not offer salary arbitration to any of their free agents: pitchers Rich Harden and Chad Fox and outfielder Reed Johnson.

Friday Cubs Fan Reality Check ChicagoNow (blog) Getting rid of Bradley is the reason we can't sign Rich Harden, Reed Johnson, and other hot players that I would like to see remain on this team. ...

By Al Will Reed Johnson return? If so, it won't be under arbitration. Browse more photos » The headline tells most of the story; no arbitration offers to Kevin Gregg, Reed Johnson, Rich Harden and Chad Fox -- here are a few more details from cubs.com, including this final paragraph:

By Al So a modified platoon of Granderson and Reed Johnson would be, in my opinion, the ticket to success for the Cubs outfield. I say "modified" because Johnson would also have to spell Fukudome in RF from time to time; on those days, Granderson would have to start in CF vs. LHP. Sam Fuld would stick w...

By Christopher Chavez On Saturday evening, Chicago Tribune writer Paul Sullivan reported that the Chicago Cubs could soon part ways with both pitcher Rich Harden and outfielder Reed Johnson. Jim Hendry, the Cubs General Manager, would love to re-sign both players but both are risky.

By Rob Reed Johnson, White Slice, Soul Patch, Vag Face, he of the highlight reel catches?  Once again, like the guy, would like to keep him.  But since we have Fukudome already, who does pretty much the exact same thing, both with the bat and with the glove...as they say in the UK, White Slice has become...

By yarbage One thing I love about Lilly is that he is clearly a clubhouse leader for the Cubs. It's not beneath him to argue an Ump on a day off, or lobby for Reed Johnson by wearing a T-Shirt. Kurt argued the merits of team aces yesterday, and I think Lilly is the closest thing to an ace the Cubs have right now. H...

By Tim In the great scheme of things, last night was just another loss.But in the Wild Card race I'm allowing my head (but not my heart yet) to pay attention to, it was a body blow since Colorado pulled their game out and knocked the Cubs back to 6 and one half games out.Damn.Rich Harden - he's gotta find h...

By Kurt Pretty much the entire Cubs offense - Hey, so far they've scored 28 runs this series.  Isn't that a little more like it?  The only guy to go hitless yesterday was Kosuke Fukudome, who is unfortunately going to be called upon to face lefties a lot more often now that Reed Johnson (affectionate...

By Josh77 Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs were blown away by the New Orleans Zephyrs, 9-1. Daytona Cubs The D-Cubs were grounded by the Dunedin Blue Jays, 6-4. For the rehabbers, Aramis Ramirez was 1 for 2 with a walk. Reed Johnson was 1 for 4 and scored a run. Boise Hawks AZL Cubs

By Al A: Fukudome's on fire right now, so I'd probably take the hot bat, but I've always liked Reed Johnson (and kind of wish the Braves had made a play for him last year). Obviously, Aramis when he's healthy is a middle of the order force. I must say that the Cubs don't have anyone I really covet, but I'...

By Ben Schwartz The Cubs got a fourth-inning home run from Kosuke Fukudome and another solo shot from Aramis Ramirez in the eighth. That was in addition to 6 innings of work by starting pitcher Carlos Zambrano. In the top of the ninth, pinch hitter Reed Johnson singled with one out. The Cubs pinch ran with the s...

By Jim Neveau 1. Platoon Johnson and Fukudome in center Reed Johnson was a Godsend after he came over from the Blue Jays at the end of last year's spring training. He did everything the Cubs could ask of him and more, and was an integral part of a team that won 97 games. 2. Sign either Derek Lowe or Ryan Dempster

By Al Anyway, other than the one inning where the Dodgers scored, Z was pretty solid, as were Derek Lowe and Jonathan Broxton, who kept the Cubs off the board through eight. The Cubs hit Lowe pretty hard, but everything was right at people. Broxton was throwing gas; he struck out Reed Johnson, a tot...

By Al Good signs today: a good outing from Michael Wuertz, who has needed one. He dispatched the Reds 1-2-3 in the 9th inning, not that it mattered by that time. Reed Johnson had four hits today and played a good CF. I would imagine he'll be playing CF vs. the two Pirates LHP on Saturday and Sunday.
