Signings of stewart, dejesus, johnson..etc simply emphasizes that help is not close.

 

No, the signings of Stewart and DeJesus were to plug holes. Vitters is still a question mark and DeJesus isn't blocking anyone. Both are cheap and could be moved easily if need be.

 

Johnson is the only inexplicable one.

 

None signify that "help is not close", or anything of the sort.

 

Disagree. Strongly.

 

Stewart actually made perfect sense. Without a definitve long term answer at 3rd he was a gamble and we didn't give up anything of huge value for him. If he does end up figuring out, it's a huge win. If not, there's Vitters, and if not him then back to the drawing board.

 

DeJesus may not have fit in with the acquire young players game plan, but he was a great value and epitomizes the type of player that represents "The Cub Way".

 

I'd have been fine with Johnson on a minor league deal, but it really made no sense to go after him when they did. It might have simply been proactive thinking. They were ready and willing to trade both Byrd and Soriano for the right price at the time, and if they had traded both they'd need some kind of interim body in the outfield, and he was cheap.

 

Are you seriously replying to the quote he replied to? And you just made it bold? WHAT THE HELL MAN?

We're getting no-hit today

 

We haven't been no-hit in like a bajillion years.

 

They're going to be no-hit 4 times this year on their path to losing 122 games.
