Taken to Task


Bruce Miles is generally the best of the Cubs beat writers. His Daily Herald pieces are generally first reads. That said, his Saturday piece had a glaring inaccuracy that must be pointed out:
Of course, the Orioles are going to want something good in return for Tejada. The Cubs still have young pitching to deal, and to have this once-in-a-lifetime shot to get a player the caliber of Tejada, Hendry also might be willing to part with some of the emerging position-player talent in the Cubs' minor-league system.

Sloppy, sloppy, Bruce. This is a "second chance," not a once-in-a-lifetime shot. As many are aware, this is a move that could have been made two years ago for far less cost, and much greater upside, than what is now being considered.
