I keep changing my mind on the best way to use Cruz. He sure was impressive yesterday in relief. I am willing to give Alfonseca one more chance to get the job...
I'm all for it, but he doesn't want to be a closer. He very much wants a starting role! Neil In a message dated 4/1/2003 3:04:14 PM Pacific Standard Time,...

That would certainly be alright with me. Just happy we didn't trade him. jim in iowa ... __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? ...

I want to start by saying that I am glad Mark Bellhorn is getting a shot to prove he can be an everyday player. He deserves it based on his play last year. I...

A 3-3 road trip to start the season is not bad, but still, I am disappointed. The Cubs could easily be 5-1, and I am left wondering if the Cubs offense we saw...

I am sure a lot of people are complaing about Baker not pulling Wood ... I think Wood did a great job of limiting the damage. The Reds have some tough left...
Well, that is kind of what I was saying. I think Wood did his job, and after the way the Cubs have gotten into the bullpen in the previous 5 games, they need...
Good win! It's good to see Clement pitch well and get the win. It's even better to see a starter go more than 7 innings so Baker does not have to get to much...
I agree, even though clement made some shaky moves, he looked good, and so did the rest of the team. Michael Caldwell <cubs_fan_in_semo@...> wrote:Good...

I also like Cruz as a closer, but for one thing, Cruz sees himself as a starter not a closer. For some reason he prefers a starters role. I agree with the...
In regards to Cruz, I've never actually read anything where he himself said that he wanted to remain a starter. I have read where he says he is fine with...
Yeah I actually did read on a few occasions, althought I could not sight where I read them now, that Cruz had said that he see's himself as a starter and that...
I am sure you are right. I don't doubt Cruz may have said that sometime ago when he first lost his job as a starter, but I think his more recent statements...
