I was at yesterday's game. Here is what I've gleamed from this game: Ben Sheets was on the mound, he's a quality starting pitcher and if he ever stays healthy...

In years past, a situation like 3-0 in the bottom of the ninth and they would've rolled over. Yesterday the fought for pitches and Fukudome stayed in and...
I watched the game last night, after reading all the posts and I have a few takes as well: The good: Fuko had a great start, and all of his AB were quality. ...
... I was thinking the same thing momentarily at the time but I soon came to the conclusion that the footing was bad with the 2 rain delays and all of the...
I was wondering if he was hurt. When he was tagged by Fielder ,he was wincing in pain. that was the only thing I could think of.....Earlier we had Fukodome...
Nothing obstructed the view of Wrigley Field on Monday from a pair of rooftop clubs whose owner has refused to share 17 percent of his profits with the team. ...
another one run loss that killed the Cubs in the 1st half of last year. another base running mistake that helped kill that 9th inning rally' But we still had a...
Problems with both options: 1 - you need 2 willing teams to make a trade, I don't want to hand Andy our minor league rosters and say pick as many players as...
... I still think we're all jumping the gun a bit here. While I think Roberts would make us a better team, we've played one game so far. We can't make any...
I doubt they're going to trade Marquis until they verify that Dempster can start regularly. Also, now is not the time to make a trade (unless NY comes to the...
Frank - I'm not panicing and I'm calm..... I just think that the Cubs possess the expendable resources to make themselves better. In my lifetime, I don't think...
It is early yet and I still think the price to pay for Roberts was too excessive. Let's how things flesh out by the time May rolls around.... ... so, ... think...
It's not too early to recognize that some of the same holes that were there when last season ended and were still there to see during spring training.... are...
Late May to mid-June is the time-frame I was looking for them to make a deal, the season is a month and a half to 2 month by then and you know who has it that...
I understand that it takes at least 2 GM's to agree to a trade, but if they wait for half the season to be over before trying to better their teams, then maybe...

... Well....thats not very encouraging if we have any plans on playing in october... Of course, nothing I'm currently seeing on the field has been very ...
So much for the Chicago Cubs getting off to a fast start in their quest to win the World Series for the first time in 100 years. Jeff Suppan held Chicago to...
Like I said, same old bums from last year.I'm not seeing any guts on the field.I for one am tired of the lack of hustle, lack of discipline, and just all...
Not making any excuses, but.... #1) The Brewers killed left handed pitchers last year and that isn't changing. Lilly is a lefty. #2) Yost ALWAYS ran on the...
Just one more thing.... The Cubs seem more focused on the grass & new drainage system more than they are on the game. I'm so tired of hearing about the...
Oh, and did I mention that Howry usually stinks early on..... just like last year? Knowing that the Brewers kill lefties, it's beyond me why Piniella brought...
Well Lou is giving up on the moving Soriano down the lineup experiment. Soriano will be leading off again with Theriot moving back to the two hole. Lou...
I'm not sure the Mets have anyone tradeable that can help the Cubs. The Heiliman thing could resurface again, I suppose. Our bullpen hasn't looked so hot, but...
