" 0670. -- wasn't. I felt really didn't. You don't make those. Game -- Ball like he would have caught it either way is most corners. Most nights only got thirty games love. You're up there and play that game that he's not left field -- Three to nothing -- we did we had a."

" You chances you know run out of games."

" So very okay. It's gonna go home. Run homer. --"

" And that -- the Astros. "

" Astros take game -- on and the Cubs are now 3M more on this homestand."

" Half volley at Daley of Chicago Sports Radio 67 of the floor. --"

" Analyst from Chicago Cubs. "

" And dad's -- are going to come out to our little remote you're going to be a sluggers on Thursday for the big showdown -- And point I don't like dame looked like it was going to mean something and now I don't know what to make him either side of town kinda. In the big showdown that are right at at -- everything -- into the month from the mayor's race. Tackle -- calorie counts."

" mean and it happened so fast. Depending on. -- this particular situation at the All-Star break in the trade deadline your original trade deadline to thirty personnel we. But I really feel both. People I know on the south side definitely -- that he may move in the right right direction and here we are about thirty days later avoided like flowers is supposed to go from here."

" Outside yes and we asked a question we're -- young can't debating it. What's the bigger disappointment the south side because of the moves they did make with don't get peavy and Alex Rios. And then by having them cancel class on this road trip or the Cubs coming home to that great schedule look good -- here comes. The nationals here come the depleted mets' thin -- 34."

" But I. And I can't really. I think both have had have been really disappointing because there is no level of expectation the ability to -- both these rosters. You need your team could win me. I have not found a way to do it and they both suffer from the same thing in -- the inability to be good competition. And you know they -- a lot of times they compete and beat the teams are supposed to be although the Cubs really are doing that right now and -- Soft schedule right now where they need help him ideally and it made up some games I humility and sitting idle and they're certainly getting bigger and -- That's not good and so you know both of these teams I think he -- expectations down both of these rosters was hard for both of these changes very very high and I think both at this point -- disappointed unfortunately. You know you start making moves now does. -- see what can happen if you didn't you know maybe catch lightning in a bottle on September if not have to make -- better starting thinking about next year."

" You know outside obviously didn't start talking about next -- had from a Rich Harden and talking about whether or not. He should have been different let's go war or traded or I don't know what -- I don't know how close it came I mean we were -- different things like they hadn't even requested his medical records which I'm sure if you're gonna make a deal for Rich Harden and you're serious about that you do that. I guess they finally did get that done but they didn't get a deal done did you do were you surprised in anyway well."

" Now you don't need need need to waiver wire deals that I mean they are so -- we never going to be you'll never all the details behind him. -- I can honestly say that you know as much of it -- come out of Minnesota as Chicago just. A you know that could've easily been a block on. Is part four for what was going on around them and they maybe had no intention of bringing him in good. You know when this contract for the money that they felt like it would -- and even for thirty days they met on offense. Comfortable swallowing net and giving up prospects the same time. The Cubs you know I mean nutrient Rich Harden walked challenging yards from arbitration you can -- compensation draft pick. You can do you do something with that I believe in you know so everybody wins but. You know you lose so intriguing because they need you here awhile you know it was hard because you really can't do not going anywhere why would they move these guys that I -- There's a lot more details behind these trade then then then people think and and home games. You know you've got an opportunity you're doing him a big favor as you are yourself giving him an opportunity if you end of his career. Potentially find himself in the postseason and possibly the World Series that he can contribute -- that dad died he can get on their way. You know I think that. That tie -- on the south side were probably broken mutually. With a with a mutual respect it wasn't you know a situation where we do you know again that's. Came on the outside the White Sox are getting better but you're giving him an opportunity to win a World Series."

" A lot of cub fans and I've been fixated on the big money guys Soriano certainly Milton Bradley's week there was last a week he could never scripted. Not only you know why he said how we said it but how often he said when he said it. But here's a guy who we've we haven't really talked about a lot it's geo Soto comes -- rookie of the year. Campaign does had yelled just terrific stuff you think the future's so bright for the kid. Many smoke. EE ZETE's. I -- I thought I. What what do you -- he -- says I I intend then he'll be our starting catcher next year. I you're on the ball park -- talking to people do I what's going -- has anyone figured it out."

" Well you know hey it happens I went through it myself and -- gets speaking from experience that mean. You know that that second year I tell you when your job when you won the rookie years you come back out there you can get your mind to what you expect of yourself. And again I think -- pressure that you don't like yourself is greater of the above and beyond anything that we in the media could put on him. The organization could probably put on him. He's got they're trying to do that. You know really. You know it's. First time you fail because it. You know I am you can look at the rookie of the year he won the rookie year let me get -- he had a pretty outstanding rookie season you probably didn't feel the whole lot of failure."

" And I think helps the when you start dealing therefore you don't necessarily all the can't -- the right way and I really think. Happens a lot of these guys nationally talk about the sophomore slump. Other players to come out maybe got a little bit there's no clear picture or their freshman year I think small bit to warm up and I get along with their career maybe they're not the rookie of the year but they build on the -- they learn how to deal with failure in front of 40000 people on a daily basis and I think that's what you've learned about this year is. How to handle himself inside the media how to handle himself inside the clubhouse thinking anyway you can hope for -- know the young kid learned his lesson that. No that you're going to have to persevere through the good faith not only going to be good if you're the person persevere through the bad times as well. And he'll find a way to have a career I expect this Hendry really really motivated them this is not. Did like you know Longoria down at Tampa Bay who was rewarded with Hillary -- Contract guys tell -- we we on who you gonna do -- superstars. Become this guy we didn't know that but I mean and obviously the organization and their thought highly enough to reward good look -- enough. Financial compensation. We when you reward a guy you take away a little bit of his motivation yeah you got yourself motivated but I mean that's their revealed I mean -- Career he -- sitting back on piracy issue deal all of his arbitration years got bought out. I even a position where he's still got to earn his money he's got to go out there he got. Actors play the field I had a great person you're gonna run second you're women can do the recollect correctly he should be highly motivated. And you should be highly motivated because that security happening on -- Him and maybe that maybe milieu it is a one hit wonder but it becomes back and again you know he's been hitting the ball pretty -- and it's been -- weird years -- and that can get a first here that's what I can come back through my mind and with the injury and do you consider. Oh for about that I believe me there -- next -- this week. Nobody has obviously like I have poorly that being said I mean these. Guys are motivated to perform while the put up numbers and when she. They obviously they want to succeed financially as well and Ngo had not done that yet and then that's going to be a little bit of a -- nearly --"

" All right Todd Hollandsworth from Comcast sports net to find Cubs analysts cut out we'll see you on Thursday at the uncivil war between the two sides -- secure whatever so -- I buddies it's look at how territorial see him on Thursday sluggers the doors open at 5 AM for art show. Beer served at 7 AM to dont be disappointed to -- drink to two hours who wants to -- up at 5 AM English is still going to what. And we'll have a pair rooftop passes for that day's game -- Miller -- And Deion I'd be right so you play got the idea of the Miller -- supplying some proof that passes and Bob Steve's house I called earlier sent off -- what I want to go I would want to go that. It's one of the unique experiences. In Chicago was one of the things doesn't matter what side of town you're from. You gotta love that stuff it's one of the great ones and when we return we'll talk to another one of the great ones. -- top of the hour rather limited 8 o'clock Williams -- Joe colleagues find out exactly. What was going on in the locker room yesterday where -- tears from big Jim Mully and Hanley and score."
