| Re: Pocket Aces: Zambrano and Harden If the Cubbies don't win the World Series this year then we are truly a cursed team. Our defense is solid, we can play small ball and big ball, our starters are peerless, our bullpen is completely solid, and we have argueably the most dominant closer in baseball.
We gave up some of our most promising prospects to aquire Harden so I hope he keeps it up. Marshall, I think, had the makings of an ace, Murton will be a .300, 20 HR, 100 RBI hitter, and Patterson looked like he could be a great small ball player, like Theriot. Oakland is looking good for next year if they can develop those players.
Soriano, Lee, Ramirez, Edmonds, Fukudome, Soto, Theriot, Zambrano, Harden, Dempster, Howry, Marmol, Wood, Pienella. If we can't win with that, we can't win...GO CUBS! |
