Ryan Freel is supposed to begin his minor-league rehab tonight for Class AAA Iowa. Freel has been on the DL since May 28 with a left-hamstring strain. It’ll be interesting to see what the Cubs do when Freel is ...
Peace Out, Ryan Freel
bleachernation.com 7/3/2009 — The Chicago Cubs designated Ryan Freel for assignment yesterday, a move necessary to make room for newly-acquired Jeff Baker. Freel was fairly terrible as a Cub, so the move is not altogether surprising.
In a related story, the Tribune had this strange comment:

Cash, Ryan Freel to the Royals
bleachernation.com 7/7/2009 — When the Chicago Cubs designated Ryan Freel for assignment last week, no one actually expected it would result in a trade.

Reed Johnson to the DL, Ryan Freel to Chicago
bleachernation.com 6/25/2009 — Getting tough for the Cubs to catch a break, unless it’s the break of a femur or something.

Could and Should Cubs Look at Wilson Betemit?
bleachernation.com 6/6/2009 — The Cubs have gone through makeshift utility players this year like tissue paper (notice I didn’t say “Kleenex,” no suing me!). So why not another?

Freel Departs From Baltimore Unnoticed
frostkingbaseball.blogspot.com 5/11/2009 — The Orioles apparently traded Ryan Freel to the Cubs for Joey Gathright, with each team paying the salary of the guy they were sending away (so unfortunately the O's didn't shed any payroll). Gathright is a career .262/.327/.303 hitter, but can at least go get 'em in the outfield. The deal at ...

Friday Night Fukudome: Farney vs. Freel
hirejimessian.com 5/9/2009 — Friday afternoon, the Cubs traded totally-useless outfielder Joey Gathright to the (snicker) Baltimore Orioles for Ryan Freel.
