    Must be a media bias against the 3rd largest city in America. Just look at Dwight Smith, Jerome Walton, Kerry Wood and Mark Prior. These guys all had great starts to their careers, but the never got any hype at all.

    never talked about where? Nationally? Who cares. How many players with 2 HRs on terrible baseball teams get run nationally? Locally he has been the (on-field) #1 topic of baseball discussion/media coverage in Chicago this season...slightly ahead of Adam Dunn's futility.
