Bombers co-owner Hal Steinbrenner feels a degree of guilt over the mess of a franchise the Cubs have become and has offered to let Tom Ricketts borrow some “baseball people” for the extent of the three-game interleague series.

The Yankees aren't the only ones upset about Derek Jeter being placed on the DL just before the team's series at Wrigley.

"The Yankees are the most famous team in all of sports and just got a brand new $2.3 billion stadium," said Cubs owner Tom Ricketts. "And since people from around the league have recently started calling our stadium a dump, we had to do something to liven the place up."

Manager Terry Collins was in support of the jersey change and also added in that the Mets jerseys with the old colors will be sold in an auction to help pay for the combined $18 million the team still owes former players Oliver Perez and Luis Castillo.

A recent study has found the New York Mets' fanbase is in fact populated by a majority of red-headed stepchildren, which accounts for the way they're treated by the rest of the baseball world.

In the fifth year of his eight-year $136 million deal Cubs left fielder Alfonso Soriano has been leading the team in home runs, is near the top of the Cubs RBI list, and has been playing better defensively, but apparently he’s missed the one thing he learned to embrace his last first years in Chicago: booing.

Speaking at a press conference after performing Tommy John surgery on Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain Thursday, Dr. James Andrews reported that although the surgery “went smoothly,” Chamberlain made “some strange demands” in the recovery room.
