....I'll still always be a die hard Cubs fan even if they go another 100 years with out it.

And they probably will, at that.

Do the Cards still have DeRosa?  Thats a guy we should have never let go.

Another guy I think the Cubs made a mistake letting go was Jake Fox, I have a feeling this guy is gonna be big, last year before the Cubs called him up mid year he was tearing up the Pacific coast league, then his first major league at bat he hit's a double, he had big numbers at the end of the season with limited at bats due to not getting the call until mid season.  Watch your gonna hear a lot about him in the coming years.

I think they let him go and went with an internal solution at 3rd Base (David Freese, I believe).

Man if they did that then that was a mistake, DeRosa's a really good player.

Yep, he's a member of the Giants now.  It is a shame, he's a very very versatile player.

Yeah I couldn't believe it when the Indians traded him mid season last year, especially since he was the one shinning star on a struggling team.

Reds finally have 3 quality starters with the sighning of the Chapman kid and a top closer. If you have pitching you have at least a chance to win.

NL central watch out for the upstart Reds!!

You should believe it lol.  Lee, Sabathia, Martinez.....getting as bad as the Pirates.

Still not sure about Chapman, he hasn't been proven yet but he might get there, there's definitely some promise.  From what I'm hearing he might fit better into a long relief or closer role a la Joba Chamberlain, but we'll see.  The Reds are definitely going to surprise some people but I don't think anybody's dethroning St. Louis for the time being.

If the Cubs stay healthy this year they'll be a contender, last year we got plagued by injuries, & losing Ramirez for all that time hurt a lot.

Come on trax you know what the World Series and a mother bear on the pill have in common.

I was just talking about our division, the NL Central.

[lowZX14]

Lol I know but you know I had to throw that joke out there.  They might be there if they aren't injury plagued this season I just see it really hard overcoming that lineup and the pitching rotation especially with 2 Cy Young candidates in Wainwright and Carpenter.  I'd love to see the Cubbies do it, I grew up watching them a lot listening to Harry Carey on WGN, man those were the days.  Wrigley is definitely on the list of fields to hit, good thing the wife is a baseball fan too and wants to visit every big league park with me.

And that what being a true baseball fan is all about, win or lose you still love your team, hell Cubs haven't won the title since 1908, but I'll still always be a die hard Cubs fan even if they go another 100 years with out it.

Cubs?
Sorry but

Red Sox looks to be decent but idk if we can pull out in the division this year.

Woot! We always got somethin in common!

Go Bo-Sox!

You know everyone always wants to point out that the Cubs haven't had a title since 1908, but it's not like their the worst team in baseball, far from it, in 07-08 the were the NL Central champs, but like I've said I'll love the Cubs no matter what, there an amazing team, have great fans, and Wrigley Field is one of the greatest ballparks in the country.
