The Cubs fired Gerald Perry Sunday morning and hey, what do you know, they won a game. One probably has nothing to do with the other, but Jim Hendry felt somebody needed to take the grenade. Such is life as a hitting coach. Last year he was the coach of one of the best offenses in baseball and they didn't exactly fall all over themselves signing Perry to a long term deal. This year, he was presiding over an awful offense and he didn't even make it until mid June. It makes you wonder though, if Perry got the axe for an early bad stretch of offense, how in the hell did bullpen coach Lester Strode keep his job into June?
