Michael Barrett has burned his last bridge in Chicago



Former Chicago Cubs Catcher Michael Barrett has burned his last bridge for the Chicago Cubs. Barrett was traded Last Night to the San Diego Padres for Catcher Rob Bowen and a minor league outfielder.

Machael was a good hitter, batting .256 with nine homeruns, but Cubs fans will not remember him for his skills with the bat.

The way Cubs fans will remember Barrett is for his defensive lapses costing the Cubs games, and for his punching of White Sox Catcher A.J. Pierzynski (above), and for his feuds with pitchers Rich Hill and Carlos Zambrano. The feud with Zambrano went as far as Barrett and Zambrano to start launching wild haymakers at each other in the dugout!

Good riddance Michael! The Cubs will be better off without a guy who tears the team apart like you! Koyie Hill and Rob Bowen will be better than you!
