Carlos Silva has turned out to be a great pick up for the Northsiders. Silva has started the season with a 3-0 record and a 3.50 ERA in 6 starts. Amongst pitchers, he has the 3rd most innings pitched and the 6th most strikeouts with 24. In my educated opinion, getting Silva for Milton Bradley was the 2nd best transaction by the Cubs in the off-season. The 1st by a slim margin would have to be the signing of Marlon Byrd. In the end, who made out better, Cubs or Mariners? All I have to say is that Silva is winning games and Bradley just removed himself from a game, just puttin' that out there.
