That one hurts me the most. I miss Z, but Aramis was my favorite Cub.

[OleMissCub]

That's just so so so [expletive] wrong

[davell]

I liked Aramis a lot, but I fall on the other side here honestly. As much crap as Z did, he was my favorite Cub. Super talented, of course, but he was just exciting. You never knew what you may get from him. No hit stuff? Home run? Stolen Base? Nailing a couple of players? Breaking bats? Screaming at guys? Beating the hell out of teammates? He was a volcano, talentwise and personalitywise as well. And in a "rebuild" type season, he probably could have kept things from possibly getting stale, as he did plenty of times in the past.
