Are the Cubs aware pitchers can be efficient?

by Ozzie Montana on Jun 28, 2008 10:14 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs

the twins defected to the NL West and now lead their division by 4 games

"Our pitchers weren’t especially happy to hear that they now have to hit," said Twins pitching coach Rick Anderson. "Most of them haven’t held a bat since Little League, and after what happened to [Yankees pitcher] Chien-Ming Wang in Houston, they sure weren’t too keen on running the bases, either. But when Joe told them about road trips to L.A. and how they can probably hook up with Alyssa Milano, they changed their tune."
