Dear Bud Norris,

Thank you for the good work you did in the middle of the year when this team was sucking and you were one of the few bright spots most of the time. But your performances over the last month or two have been pretty bad and you make some really bone-headed plays. How 'bout we give you a great big atta-boy for the good work you did and you go sit over there. Please don't touch a baseball unless it is to play catch with someone that can benefit this team or to shag balls. People are already starting to think you're taking money from the Rockies and/or Brewers. No sense in giving them more reasons to be suspicious...

Thanks,

Cardinal Fans
