I have seen several baseball magazines recently, and they all pick the Cubs third, behind St. Louis and Houston. That seems pretty accurate to me. Of course,...

How do you figure Prior was overworked? Did he pitch in like 50 games that I don't know about? He is a much different pitcher than Wood, who in my opinion was...

Interesting theory, but sounds like a lot of hog wash to me. That's just my opinion. Guys threw 150 plus pitches for years and nothing happened to them. jim in...

Hey, have any of you guys seen the book _The Complete Cubs_ published last year (2002) by Black Dog and Leventhal Publishers with numbers by Stats, Inc. and...
I agree it's a great book. The only problem I found with it is that if you examine the individual statistics of some of the late 1800's Cubs players, they...
Chris, I don't have time to do in-depth studies. Just stating my opinion. I don't believe the Cubs erred last year with Prior and I don't believe they overused...
I think he has an excellent shot at it and he should do it in a Cubs uniform. By then we will have won at least three titles. Life will be good. jim in iowa ...

Should Midre Cummings make the team? No. Here's a guy to watch for, however. Nic Jackson. One scout predicts a big future for this young outfielder and says he...
I have heard great predictions for Jackson, but he is not scheduled to arrive in Wrigley for another year or two, from what I have read. jim in iowa ... ...
What is the reasoning behind saying that Midre Cummings should not make the team? I thought he has had a pretty good training camp so far. By the way, I do...
