Closure on Closer

The Cubs have chosen a closer! Kevin Gregg will be headed to the mound 9th innings this season. Carlos Marmol took a close second in the competition for the job. Again. Marmol played a great season last year, where he led the majors among relievers in the number of strikeouts thrown. He was very disappointed, […]

Koskie Finished

Corey Koskie decided that his comeback wasn’t worth it to him any longer. He had been injured in 2006 with a concussion and wasn’t playing in the big leagues since then. He had decided he wanted to try a comeback in the game, because he enjoys it so much. He said he felt good for […]

Rotation

The Cubs rotation is playing very solidly this season so far. It’s a good year for them, with Dempster, Marshall, Zambrano, Harden and some other pitchers ready to play. Each one of them have given some good outings. Zambrano is the only real concern. And it’s not because he’s a bad player. He just has […]

Don’t Get Nervous Yet

Lou is a little bit nervous about the team. They aren’t getting clutch hits or runs, and they seem to be having trouble playing small ball. But that doesn’t mean that we, the fans, need to be nervous quite yet. After all, the actual season hasn’t really begun. It’s going to be a fun year, […]

Between Harden, Zambrano and all the other pitchers, the team is looking to be great this year. There have been some other kinds of problems […]

Piniella Annoyed Again

Lou Piniella has become a Chicago favorite, coming out once in awhile with some upset-sounding rants and such like. He’s pretty upset now. In the Cactus League this year, the team started off winning 4 in a row, but they’ve lost the last six. They will be playing the Royals today and that might be […]

Winning the Division

When you think about the Cubs, you don’t usually think of the team being winners of the Division. But taking a wider look at the division makes you need to ask questions about whether any of these other teams could do that. The Brewers were the best chance at keeping the Cubs out of it […]

No Games for Milton Bradley

Milton Bradley will be keeping the bench warm for the next little while. He left a preseason game last week with tightness in his thigh and may not be back for a little while. We’re wanting to see if he will be back soon, but the team doesn’t seem to be concerned. Apparently, the most […]
