I hope you're right about Dusty (not so much because I wish the kid harm ... just don't want to see him dominating the Cubs).

I have been hoping the Cubs snap him up ever since I saw him dominate in the WBC. The trade off is that Dusty will probably break him after a season, especially with his 100mph+ fastball.

They are going to be too old to compete with centeral teams. I understand we have some good prospects coming, but until then they need to add and subtract some pieces. They still need a leadoff man and I am not totally confident in Marmols to close with his control and abnormal mechncenics (sp). I have heard that the Cubs are revisting interest in Heath Bell. Love this guy met him and have seen him pitch. Great stuff and is a great guy got his autograph before a game last year and he stayed and had a nice conversation with me and my two daughters.
