Johnson and Ramirez Last Rehab Start and other notes...

Aramis Ramirez is playing third and batting third for Peoria Chiefs today in his last rehab start.

First at-bat: Singles on a fly ball to left field, 1-1

Second at-bat: Walk, 1-1

Third at-bat: Flys out to the right field, 1-2

Reed Johnson is playing CF and batting first for Peoria Chiefs in his last rehab start.

First at-bat: Singles on a fly ball to center field and scored a run, 1-1

Second at-bat: Flys out to the CF, 1-2

Third at-bat: Grounds out to the pitcher, 1-3

Fourth at-bat: Pops out to the first baseman in foul territory, 1-4

If everything goes exactly as plan and both of them feel 100% or close they will be activated off the 15 day DL tomorrow.

Ted Lilly was the only Cub to make the all-star, he was voted in by the manager Charlie Manuel.

According to Hot Stove Cubbies, the Cubs are interested in relief pitcher Matt Herges. Herges was DFA by the Indians yesterday. I will take Herges over Patton any day.

Also he mention the Cubs were close to acquiring Mark Derosa, he was told to pack his bag and are headed to Chicago before the Cardinals swoop in and got him.

I will keep you posted.
