  1. what have the cubs won in 1908-present? ernie banks was the best offensive cubs player for a while, same with ryne sandberg, andre dawson, billy williams, etc. do they get labelled the same as aramis?
  2. Mabry strikes out way too much to be an eckstein type player. Come to think of it though - Theriot is EXACTLY like Eckstein. i know, but he was in that stupid "mlb white player of the year" contest thing, and i couldn't think of anyone else at 1st base.
  3. remember how d-lee started off cold in 2004, when prior was hurt? if he would have produced more during that time, the cubs might have won 91 games and the wild card.
  4. fine. jones for bonderman and granderson
  5. OK GUYS KNOCK IT OFF
  6. aramis is my favorite offensive cub player. i'll be really mad if we lose him.
  7. he'll probably think he can build a team that will hover at .500 and still be good enough to win the world series, so he won't go balls out in getting great players. either that, or he'll go for a team of eckstein type players. 1b: john mabry 2b: ryan theriot 3b: ryan freel ss: david eckstein c: mike matheny lf: scott podsednik cf: darin erstad rf: drawing a blank
  8. Don't you know? Weaver is a great pitcher! His postseaon shows that! He's better than Verlander or anyone else on the Tigers. He's probably better than Santana on the Twins too! Since you didn't understand what I was saying. I said Weaver was a better post season pitcher than Verlander was. Weaver as the 5th starter would be fine with me. He will give you 11-13 wins a year, and he will pitch atleast 200 innings.

You're seriously telling me that you somehow knew that Weaver in this postseason was going to be solid gold, even though he's never had ANY postseason success before? If it's true, please pm me the winning ohio lottery numbers.
  9. matthews had a .349 babip. fluke season. maybe on a 1 year deal, but that won't happen, he'll get a multi year deal. just say no.
  10. We have too much money invested in the bullpen anyways. Let him go and watch him win numerous Cy Youngs
  11. i can't believe some cubs fans are so picky about what players are on a cubs championship team. beggers can't be choosers
  12. at last we agree on something
  13. so should the cubs spend money on a crappy pitcher and hope he turns into gold in the post season? that's essentially what happened to the cards.
  14. are you kidding??? the end of the 2004 season was about as fun as a fart in church. it's the last time in a long time that we'll care about the cubs in september
  15. i'll take going to hell and seeing the cubs win it all
  16. you're so wrong
  17. maybe we're getting the bad stuff out of the way so 2007 can be fun
  18. thanks for the reminder that the cubs used to be fun
  19. Bochy now officially Giants manager. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2640133
  20. Our bullpen wasn't a strength last year either. It was very mediocre.
  21. While he could be posturing to drive up Burrell's value, this is a change from earlier statements. Didn't Hendry consistently say that Sosa was going to be his right-fielder in 2005?
  22. haha i'm tied for 1st but imb has more points than me i love my team, i should rename them the rockecksteins, they do all the little things to win
  23. bengals win? yay
