dolamite Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 That can be a potent lineup, especially at Wrigley....:thumb: Yep.:thumb: I am a Cubs fan, have been my whole life so even though I'm excited about the upcoming season, I'm not going to get too excited.

STRIKE3 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Yep.:thumb: I am a Cubs fan, have been my whole life so even though I'm excited about the upcoming season, I'm not going to get too excited. I agree, there is reason for excitement in Chicago and rightfully so, you are looking forward to '07. Sometimes new energy from a Manager, coaching staff will translate into re-dedication by players, fans and carry over to over-achievement on the field. Cubs have potential, but like most other clubs must stay healthy and get consistent starting pitching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00Rocket28 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 And I would love for Mark Cuban to purchase the Cubs, if he can turn around the Mavericks, he can turn around the Cubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STRIKE3 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 from the article, last paragraph...."In the wake of the Soriano signing, starting pitching remains the Cubs' biggest priority. They expect to add two starters, preferably one by trade. They also have the option of converting newly acquired left-hander Neal Cotts into a starter". Needed, by most MLB teams.

00Rocket28 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Seems like the Cubs are planning on making a run at it next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scribe Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 Either a run at a title or a run at a hefty selling price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcpapa Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Making them more valuable to sell IMO I was talking with an acquaintance from Chicago this morning; he says that the locals definitely see the move as an indication that the Tribune will sell.

STRIKE3 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Cubs are supposedly ready to deal of starting pitcher Jake Westbrook.If I recall, he had a good year with the Indians and could be a good addition for the Cubs, if they are able to get this deal done. Kind of surprising the Indians would part with him, as I thought they would make a run at the AL Division in '07. You just never know about the winter meetings and free-agency....anything can and often does happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
