Good Things From 2007...yes good things

[anabiono]

First and foremost, you can't lose in the offseason...so, right there we already have a beautiful reprieve...

 

seriously though,

 

good things...

 

Wood - man, it is great to see him back...starter next year?...who knows, all I know is that I hope he sticks with the cubbies

 

Soto - if he isn't the starting catcher next year then something is wrong, plus he looks like a cousin of Dave Navarro...is he wearing mascara?

 

Derosa - this guy is a class act, i love having players on this team that behave this way...i hope he isn't dealt off unless it is for something large...

 

Marmol - very nasty...something happened at the end, but i think it just happened to about everybody on the whole team...think kid is the cat's meow...

 

Prior - *please don't yell at me* - I hope the cubs keep him especially if his time table for availability is at the latest the end of May...oh...the good thing is that they finally figured out what is wrong with him...he had surgery and should hopefully be back...no more wondering really...

 

We Lost - yes, the more and more I think about it, this is really only a good thing...I mean I have never seen a team of mine suck it up in a fashion quite as bad as this before...the only question mark we really had going into this series was Big Z...would he be too emotional?...well, Big Z was just fine and turned in a solid outing...everybody else though...they pretty much did...you know what...to the bed...

 

After a butt kicking like this one, if this team doesn't have a fire for next season, I don't know what else could give them one...they played terrible...bottom line...they have to be embarrassed and ready for next year to show up instead of bowing out very very weakly...

 

oh...the offseason sale is another *potential* good thing...hopefully this doesn't go bad and the cubs can still make some deals for next season

 

unless things go absolutely great I still think we see Hendry next season...that really isn't a good thing though
