Milton Bradley uncomfortable with his fit on Chicago Cubs

Full story: Chicago Tribune

Milton Bradley had one bright moment, a nice sliding catch of a Chris Getz line drive in the 5th.

Is it me or does Bradley come across as a very immature and high strung guy? His antics don't match his desire to blend in. He scares me - I really think he is going to snap someday on the field and do something really stupid.

There is only one way to get through this mess... Fire Jim Hendry and release Milton Bradley. Yes, the Cubs will owe this guy for 2 1/2 years, but it can be blamed on Hendry and everyone moves on. Bradley can go play in a place like Kansas City, where he won't be "watched to closely" and a new GM can start to rebuild. In the end, the Cubs and the city of Chicago will be much happier. Happy teams win championships! Even if Bradley were stuck with the team, Hendry has created a personal and financial mess for the team and it's time to call for his pink slip!

Geez. I thought this was a professional game for grown up adult males - talent and a certain amount of poise and maturity required..

Waaa. Nobody likes me...nobody talks to me. Do you realize Milton how much of a baby you sound like? You are getting paid a freakin tremendous amount of money to play a GAME. And you are acting like you are 8.(No wait, 8 year olds would know when to shut up and suck it up.) There is no sympathy because you deserve none. You are a professional. Suck it up and deal. You don't hear D-Lee or Geo whining when things go south. Come on!

How much does he make a year again?

The rest of us make a tiny fraction of what he does and have to deal with criticism at work even if we excel at it.

Not to play Monday Morning QB, but Bradley has a very long history of volatile behavior in MLB. Everyone knew that this was a risky signing, and a few months into the season there's ample evidence that he hasn't changed his ways. This was a big gamble by Hendry, and so far it's been a huge loss. Not very hard to see this coming!

Look Milt ... redeem yourself and your reputation and do something refreshing for today's professional athlete.

Man up ... admit you didn't live up to your end of the contract and give the Cubs the option of a complete and full release.

Some things just don't work out ... this looks like one of them ... unfortunately, this is one of those situations that is going to get much worse before it even has a chance of getting any better.

Someone else please do the counting for me, I can't bear to look.

I heard Hendry took a 97 win team and got rid of 12 of the 25 players on that roster.

True?

HAHAHAHAHA! This is good stuff- are you kidding me. Talk about lame excuses for your poor performance as a Cub, to blame his relationship with other players must be the bottom of the "excuse barrel". In baseball, as much as anything else in life, it is 'what have you done for me lately' and Milton, you have so far been a miserable failure. Sad to say, but all the negative reports about you are being realized.

How come when "Z" does this stuff, it is ok. When Milton does it, he gets sent home. The rules shoudl be the same for all.

Send him down the minors for a while. He will either learn to get along with others, and hit the ball-or-suck so bad he will never be able to come back. Either way it can't hurt the current line up.

In fact send him down, and bring back Bobby Scales! Scales had some hitting challenges, but got along great with everyone and was a fan favorite.
