Cubs odds and ends: Leadoff ideas, Pitching signing, KB's streak, A-rod no thank you

From time to time I need to clear some clutter from my desk (and my mind). Here’s the latest handful of noteworthy odds, ends, and miscellany that I wanted to share with our readers.

As far as I am concerned, the three sportcasters, if you can call them that, are as bad if not worse than listening to Joe Buck. I turn the sound completely off. They have rarely said anything that I would be interested in.

Actually, Jessica Mendoza is pretty good, if you ever get a chance to hear her because Rodriguez never shuts the heck up. I can even put up with Matt Vasgersian as he at least has some excitement to his broadcast.

As for Rodriguez and "brought a lot of greatness to baseball," that is a bunch of nonsense. He is a caught steroids user who gathered who knows how much of his success by cheating. He should have been shamed out of baseball and not given a high profile job broadcasting it.

I understand your point, but just like Sosa, he brought a lot of viewers to the game, and the steroids would hinder his defense more than help it. I'd agree about Vasgersian, he's not bad at all, but even with him being tolerable, you can't hear anything as the audios is all screwed up because of the way they mic the field up. As for Mendoza, we'll have to agree to disagree on her "ability."
