Milton was in the lineup and took himself out. This dude doesn't want to be here.

I'm beginning to think Milton might have a point about negative environment. No one on this team seems to care or be having any fun anymore playing the game. We're starting to piss everyone off. It was particularly foolish to let it go that big Z will be shopped. The guys on this team like Z and letting everyone know that he would be shopped was idiotic. We've been sending out a lot of mixed signals lately. Lou not having a press conference and taking Sully at his word, not even caring and/ or "drinking." Lou yelling at Wells and pissing him off is not good. A rookie starter should not be put down or calling his own start "pitiful."
Piniella laughed. There was no water bottle in sight, though Piniella appeared quite refreshed. As for Bradley's defensiveness, Piniella said Bradley handled things wrong, saying he should have just told the truth.

"All he had to say was I talked to [the trainer] in front of the manager, which he did, and he said, 'My patella is bothering me,' " he said. "When he went over to first base, I motioned to him and he said he couldn't run, and we just took him out of the ballgame. ... He was in his perfect rights to come out of the ballgame, and that's all he needed to say.

"All he has to say are the facts. And if he says the facts, nobody is going to dispute anything. That's all. Just say the facts."
Well, Lou whose job is it to find out what a player's injury is? It is clear that Lou and Cubs management (particularly whichever idiot leaked Zambrano trade possibility) is not running this clubhouse well.
