    And who built the 67 win team? He turned them into an 85 win team by buying everything, again going back the payroll thing. That 85 win season also came at the cost of giving Soriano 136 million dollars. So let's see. He built a horrible 67 win team, then was given a ton of cash to make it better, spent all that cash, then won an okay 85 wins in a horrible division, and we're supposed to congratulate him for that? Wow. Such low standards. What on earth are you talking about? The 2003 Cubs won 85 games. We're talking about the 2003 team here. Please, if you're going to participate in the discussion... know what the discussion is about. And, of course, you don't know who built the 2002 Cubs. No surprise. It wasn't Hendry, though. I'd tell you to look it up yourself, but for some reason I don't think you'd have success. Hendry took over as GM midway thru the '02 season. The 2003 Cubs won 88 games. Please, if you're going to participate in the discussion... know what the discussion is about. I'm the one who brought up the 85 win team. I was and still am talking about the extremely mediocre 2007 Cubs, for which Hendry should receive very little credit, if any.

    He took a 67 win team that was embarrassingly bad and turned them into a division winner the following year -- again, his job. Yes, neat indeed. I wonder who assembled that 67 win team. Hendry's breathing oxygen a good man could be using. He's a waste. Always has been.

    Why are we giving Hendry credit for an 85 victory division winner which got humiliated in the first round of the playoffs?
  4. JeffH
    Hendry is an extremely hard worker and seems like a decent enough guy. However, the fact is that he's proven beyond all reasonable doubt that he can't get the job done. It's time for someone else.
  5. JeffH
    Hendry is a horrible, horrible MLB GM. Really, he's approaching Jim Frey/Ed Lynch territory. He can't become a former Cubs executive soon enough.

    Has Orioles Hangout weighed in yet?
  7. JeffH
    Actually, he has thirty million reasons not to care about doing any of those three things.

    Backe has almost always been pretty bad. This has been a long time coming.
  9. JeffH
    Milton Bradley. The cherry of incompetence on top of the sundae of failure that is Jim Hendry's career.
  10. JeffH
    How long before Hendry weeds Jake Fox out of the organization?
  11. JeffH
    Because the alternative is Aaron Miles?
  12. JeffH
    Marijuana? That's nothing. Soto plays for the Chicago Cubs. I admire him for not mainlining heroin.

    This is like saying that Camden, New Jersey can be a much, much safer city.

    Horrible amateur scouting + Horrible player development system = Horrible farm system = Cubs But it's OK, guys - Hendry's on the case.

    When the Cubs acquired Rich Harden, he had maybe the best pure stuff in MLB. Now, his stuff is just ordinary, or worse. Is that just bad luck or did the Cubs ruin him?

    Tonight's game has to be considered a huge success. Rick Porcello did not set a new single game record for strikeouts.

    On pace to score 675 runs for the season. No Cubs team has scored fewer than 700 runs since the 1997 disaster. I wonder if any team in MLB history has gone from scoring over 850 runs in one season to fewer than 700 the next.

    Serious question: Is this the worst Cubs team of all-time?

    http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20090616&content_id=5354278&vkey=pr_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc The Chicago Cubs today recalled infielder/outfielder Jake Fox from Triple-A Iowa and placed left-handed pitcher Jason Waddell on the 15-day disabled list (retroactive to June 13) for evaluation and treatment of a non-baseball related medical issue.

    http://cubs.scout.com/2/871803.html Also interesting was that one of the questions said that the Cubs had 7-9 guys scout Jackson and he was a pretty unanimous decision for the team. Yet another reason to jettison Hendry, Wilken, and the entire scouting staff.

    Born to be a Chicago Cub.
  23. JeffH
    The signing of Milton Bradley is shaping up to be Jim Hendry's biggest gaffe ever. Let us pause for a moment to consider the magnitude of that statement.
  24. JeffH
    Wilken is awful. The worst scouting director in the game, by far. He should be fired immediately.
  25. JeffH
    Minor over Matzek? Brutal. Simply brutal.
