All that's missing are the little thought bubbles to connect Geo to his 'stash.'BREAKING NEWS – The Tribune and Sun Times are both reporting that lethargic, overweight, sleepy-eyed Cubs catcher Geovany Soto tested positive for marijuana at the WBC this past March.

Former Cubs left fielder Moises Alou was unavailable for comment, mainly because he was busy keeping his streak alive of smoking weed for the 12,297th day in a row.

Honestly, why do they test for marijuana?  Can you think of anything less performance enhancing than that?  What’s next, is Derrek Lee going to call time to pop an Ambien while he’s in the batter’s box?

Soto was given today’s loss (a day game after a night game last night) off, but pinch hit in the ninth.  His Cheetos stained fingers nearly came completely off the bat as he struck out to end the game.

He was expected to talk to reporters after the game, but said he’d be a “while” because he really wanted a nap, and had already promised to explain to Reed Johnson how to synch up Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon” to “The Wizard of Oz.”

The test does carry a suspension.  Soto will not be able to participate in international baseball competition for two years.  It’s pretty severe, considering the next World Baseball Classic is in THREE years.

By the way, just how high was the graphics person at the Sun Times who put the picture of Geo with the marijuana plant superimposed over his shoulder?

It looks like he’s the guest newscaster on Telemundo giving the ag report.
