Open up the fire sale. This season is beyond redemption.

 

A fire sale scares me now as much as anything. Instead of just screwing up the 2006 season, Hendry could conceivably cripple the Cubs for the next 5 years...

What about this season has not been screwed up?

 

As for crippling the Cubs, the very fact that he was extended, has ensured it!

Agreed. The only thing that would make me mad now is trading our players for horrible prospects.

At this point, I am willing to give some horrible propects a chance, and a good example would be Borchard taking Maddux down with a 3 run dong. Then again, he was facing Cub pitching!

Anyone else think they should just shut down prior for the rest of the year and let Lee take his time coming back?

 

Prior who?

We're about to be swept by the Marlins. Seriously, the Marlins.

 

I'm with Glass Cow....this season has hit "funny bad." Laugh it up for the next five months.

Except as long as Lee is gone, he's their excuse...

 

That's the real tragedy of Lee's injury... because the team would still suck if he was here... but they wouldn't have any excuses...

tomorrow being an offday something really needs to happen. Again if its just Clines or Rothschild someone really needs the axe. At some point you have to hold someone accountable not just keep saying Lee and Prior. My guess the only thing we will hear tomorrow is Barretts 10 game suspension however and some lame Cub excuses. Go Tigers!!!!!!!!

The season hit funny bad LONG before this series my friend.

I'll probably be moving this summer into a house. At least I won't have to worry about getting the cable hookup ready so I can watch the game. I'll have better things to do.

I think we're probably another week away from the Axeman coming for someone... getting close though.

And what's really sickening is:

 

1) Our team is lousy

2) Every other team in the ML knows the Cubs suck this year

3) The Cubs may be feeling some "desperation" to salvage the season

4) We have alot of guys performing well below expectations.

 

Add all those things together and any trades we can make between now and the deadline will have us in the position of bending over, unless we can pry some young talent from some contenders but does anyone here really believe our leaders are capable of evaluating young talent and making some wise moves? I know I'm not.

 

This is going from bleak to horrendous in a real hurry.

Nah, for me it was when that Fish pitcher mathced Pierre's RBI total for the season.

Hendry would screw up the fire sale so badly. He wouldn't understand that when trading your players, youre not supposed to be getting the Neifi Perez's and Glendon Rusch's of the league.

You mean the Marlins pitcher who was one of the three players we gave them in exchange for Pierre?

Don't underestimate Dusty and company, regardless of the situation there's always an excuse. Dusty' one true talent - generating excuses...
