Funny... at the exact same time, I was entering this same link... at least I know that the function works where you can't submit the same news story twice because I got an error when I tried...  here is the comment and headline I tried to put up...

&b-Like a counter chess move, the Cubs respond to the Sabathia deal by landing Rich Harden-b&

"This makes things really interesting.

Just how good can Sabathia be at Miller Park and Harden at Wrigley, both notorious hitter's ballparks?  Will the "pitcher batting ninth" factor wash out the hitter's park effect?

We'll see as soon as tonight with C.C."
