National League Central 2009 Haiku Forecasts

by Stuart Shea

CUBS
Spring wish, autumn dreams
Green of youth and rust of age
Hope is…Kevin Gregg?

BREWERS
Prince Fielder’s a veg.
The racing sausages can
Rest easy all summer.

ASTROS
Bummer! Bits of sun
Are all that Minute Maid Park
Will see this season.

CARDINALS
Converted Skippy
Will be a sitting pigeon
For one hard slide.

REDS
Screw Dusty Baker!
The Reds have enough talent
To win despite him.

PITTSBURGH
Winter’s not the time
To start rebuilding a house
With no foundation.
