Solid article Bruce. Good stuff as always Bruce. One thing though, I could've sworn the Lou quote comparing him to other players was a cross between Hideki Matsui and Ichiro (not that I necessarily agree). You've got Kaz in there. Edit: From here: http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20071209&content_id=2321824&vkey=news_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc Bump. You know, I screwed that up. The day Lou gave that original quote was the day the Cubs found out they got "beat" in the Kaz Matsui sweepstakes. So I went back and looked at my transcription of Lou's quote that day, and he said only "Matsui." So I've had "Kaz" Matsui on the brain. I'm sure he meant Hideki Matsui, and that would be a better thing. Hey Bruce! Any updates on what the Cubs are up to post-Kosuke? yea, is he flying to Chicago for an unveiling of any kind soon???
