Vince Galloro, of the excellently named and written “Exile in Wrigleyville,” and I had a chat Thursday night about this weekend’s Padres/White Sox series. It could have used more animosity, more fire, more cowbell, but overall I think we did a pretty solid job.
Check it out at Vince’s digs. Let him know if you like the format; let me know, for that matter. Maybe we’ll get some more of these going in the future.

Geoff, interesting discussion, if a little long winded (pun intended . I don’t think you have anything to worry about in saying Roberts is not an upgrade defensively in CF. Payton was very good out there last year. Despite Roberts’ speed, he has not shown good range; imo, he takes poor routes to balls on occasion, and it’s obvious his arm is not up to playing the position, let alone playing it in a park like Petco.
