Cubs aquire Simon

Well you hear that Choi? Thats probably the end of your career in Chicago. Am i being sarcastic? Who knows but with the way Cruz, and Hill have been treated like parasites to Dusty Baker anything is possible. Remember Hill had 190 AB's last year and got 4 this year. Hee Seop Choi has 197 AB's. How many AB's will Choi see next year?

Quoted 3/24/03, on the season opening series against the Mets...

"I don't want Big Choi to lose his timing by sitting out a couple days," Baker said. "I might do the same thing when we get to New York. I might have him face one of the lefties up there. Late in the spring, early in the season, when you barely have your timing, a day or two can set you back. It was Choi's turn to play."

Funny how Baker doesnt believe in his own philosophy after an injury. I guess if its the middle of the season and after a major head injury you dont need playing time to get your timing back? -shrug-
