"I think every day is important right now," Edmonds said. "I'm not going to worry about it. The worst thing they can do is send me back to my family, you know what I mean? Right now I'm really concentrating on helping the team, and obviously, I have to be a father at home.

"There are a lot of things more important than just the game. I have a whole list of things on my plate right now, so when I'm here, I'm doing my job and doing the best I can. And when I get home, I separate myself from it."

I don't understand all the fuss over Edmonds. If he is the least of your worries, the Cub are in excellent shape.

Agreed, Bob Howry has sucked in the bullpen for the most part.

he just doesn't have the reflexes/bat speed/strength to produce hits anymore.

Are you saying this is an untrue statement Darkside? When did "concentrating on helping the team" and understanding there are more important things in life become mutually exclusive?

Douche him because he sucks...not because of weak crap like this.

Some of the real early Cheers and real late Cheers was bad, but the stuff in between was great!

In the midst of a baseball season, he needs to be concentrating on baseball. If he wants more family time I understand that. However, when you're hitting less than your weight, learning how to make contact with the ball should be your primary concern. He's made enough money that if he wants to be Daddy he should go do that, and leave the baseball to the guys who are 100% dedicated to the team.
