The Cubs are at it AGAIN!!!!

[GOLDENGREEK]

Still so many question marks with the starting pitching. Prior will be the #1 key this year. IF HE STAYS HEALTHY AND RETURN TO FORM--WATCH OUT!!!

[Gookis]

HILL WILL BE THE # 3 OR 4 STARTER ROOK
HE LOCKED IN A STARTERS SPOT WITH THE 2ND HALF HE HAD

Agreed.

Marshall is a huge question mark. Zambrano and Hill are the only for sure, and I don't say that based on Hill's talent, just the way the organization is looking at it. Then Miller...Prior is even a "?".

[GOLDENGREEK]

Not yet signed... The cubs offered to him.. I see no way Lilly declines the offer... Waaayyyyyyyy to much money

IN TODAYS CHICAGO PAPER IT SAYS THE YANKS, RED SOX AND TORONTO ARE JUMPING INTO THE LILLY DERBY AND THAT AMAZING CONTRACT THE CUBS OFFERED WILL GO UP. UNREAL

I am just sitting back waiting for Muscle Man's post ...

TED LILLY 10 MILLION A YEAR?(59-58 4.60 ERA)

WITHOUT SORIANO 66 VICTORIES

WITH SORIANO 72 VICTORIES

WITH LILLY 64 VICTORIES


KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK CUBBIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tinman1960]

Damn ... It seems like i say the Cubs look good going into every season and no matter what they always disappoint. I like Lilly but he has pitched his best while i watched against Boston. He was known as a Red Sox killer. I like the move and i think if the Cubs find one more solid starter, i'll say it again ... "Damn, the Cubs look good this year"!

TO BE CONTINUED ..................

AND THEN NEXT YEAR YOU CAN START ANOTHER FUCK THE CUBS TREND

I HOPE THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. I CANT BELIEVE THEY WOULD SHELL OUT 10 MILLION FOR LILLY. THERE HAS TO BE A GUY IN YOUR FARM SYSTEM YOU COULD PAY MINIMUM WAGE

AND GIVE YOU 59-58 AND A 4.60 ERA FOR 5 SEASONS.

IF HENRY SIGNED THIS DEAL HE SHOULD BE SHIPPED TO WHEREVER DUSTY IS HANGING OUT.

[musclemann]

Your awesome mm ... thanks for not letting me down ,,,

NO PROBLEM. MY ONLY QUESTION IS WHO WILL BE THE SCAPEGOAT NEXT YEAR WHEN THESE LOSERS DONT WIN IT????????

SAMMYS GONE
DUSTY GONE
BARTMANN GONE

THE MRI TWINS?
OR PINELLA?

I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIS FACE COME SEPT 1ST AND THEIR 25 GAMES OUT OF FIRST PLACE.

PRICELESS!

Consistant.....

I'm looking at the silver lining here....at least he's consistant.

Hill over Marshall? That would be a nice little battle.

Two lefties (assuming Lilly signs) in the rotation would be a positive as well.

I'm really really hoping for Schmidt though.....That really would be a great move for the Cubs.

[TheRook]

Steve Phillips reported saying Cubs are after Gil Meche as well and are trying to get both Lilly and Meche.

Toronto is trying to keep Lilly though

Schmidt is an ace. It's insane to me that people say Meche, Lilly, and Padilla in the same sentence as Jason Schmidt. Jason Schmidt would be the ace on the Cubs staff, Zambrano has ace stuff, but he's mental. If they get Schmidt they are definitely a contender, if they get one these other jokers they won't be.

[rocko]

THEY STILL WILL NOT FINSHED AHEAD OF THE CARDS OR IF THEY DO THE CUBS WILL FIND SOME WAY TO FUCK IT UP LOL ME LIVING HERE IN STLOUIS,WATCH MANY YEAR OF THE CARD/CUBBIE SIERS ONE OF THE BETTER ONES I THINK,
ACTUALLY THE CUBS ARE ABOUT MY 3RD FAV. TEAM
1. CARDS OF COURSE
2. YANKS
3.CUBBIES
ITS HARD NOT TO LIKE THEM AFTER ALL THe YEARS OF WATCHING AND GOING TO THERE GAMES BUT I STILL SAY THEY DO NOT GET PAST THE WORLD CHAMPS CARDS REMEMBER THEM NOT TO MANY PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE MIDWEST I BET DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHO PLAYED IN THE WORLD SEIRS THIS PAST YEAR HEHE GLLL
GET-R-DON PEACE

[BearDown]

What I heard today was that the Cubs could send RF J. Jones and a young arm to Colo for J. Jennings and then Colo would make a deal with Pitt. With Lilly and Alf you have to wonder how much more money are the Cubs going to spend? Schmidt and Zito would be nice, but I doubt it. Guy's like Jennings and Meche sound more like it.
