Said Dr. Gryzlo, "Well, Rob had a partially torn rotator cuff so I went ahead and tore it all the way off. Rob volunteered for the procedure because he felt this was his last chance to pitch for a contender." Cubs GM Hendry has reportedly signed Nen's arm to a 1 year $6M deal w/ an $8M option.
Dr. Gryzlo also took the opportunity to surgically bolt a JUGS pitching machine to Wood's left leg. Asked about the procedure the doctor said, "This is strictly precautionary". Manager Dusty Baker is ecstatic with the move. "Now I can pitch Woody maybe 400-500 innings. One arm falls off, he got another one, and he can also pitch with his left leg now. Thank Jugs!"

I feel like Frankenstein. NIce touch with the pitching machine.
With these Cub pitchers you can never have too many "precautions".
As always: nice work, 10Man! -- kjk
10Man, this is exactly what I needed this morning. Keep up the good work!
- oh, I posted here before as Avi, which is my actual name, but since I'm using Jiraiya on TCR I figured I'd be consistent.
Jiraiya, does "Jiraiya" mean something? Other than signifying you, of course. -- kjk
10Man, here's one inspired by your good work and all the apocalyptic talk about the cubs' pitching injuries... the 4 horsemen of the cubs' apocalypse... :) -- kjk
