He'll be on the shelf anyway. Overpriced and on the decline imo

On the decline? He's 29. He had one average season. What facts do you have to back your opinion?

The guy is great pitcher, and if memory serves me right he is rarely injured. One of the top 5 starters in baseball.

None as KB is just spewing

One too many.

Cubs wouldn't have paid the amount he wanted I don't think.

And if we sign him, do we still get Fukudome?

I"m perfectly fine with what we have right now.

I can't say I blame you. They've been very impressive. Let's hope they can continue right into and throughout the playoffs and WS.

So far so good.

I just find it very hard to believe that Sam Zell who's trying to sell the team would take on another 100 million dollar contract. He approved the one for Zambrano which really surprised me.

Don't get me wrong, would have LOVED to see Santana in a Cubs uniform, but it was highly unlikely even if he did answer.

I think we need another starter Rook - I dont trust Hill , Lieber, Marquis, Lilly

So far it seems its big Z , Dempster and hope to outscore the the other team when u have the rest of the staff out there
