Next year's lineup will look substantially better when Mark Cuban buys the Cubs and he signs A-Rod.

IF Mark Cuban buys the Cubs (c'mon God, one time), I can't imagine a scenario where he does not [censored] can Hendry immediately. He'll keep Lou, but I could live with that if Hendry is gone.

Meh, Pinella is a fine manager. He's the least of the problems. Just remember, all managers are idiots. Some are just less retarded than others. Lou happens to be one of those people.

Like I said, I can live with Piniella if Hendry is gone. Having two old school baseball clowns running things is too much. Piniella can't run [censored] players out onto the field if the GM doesn't sign them and trade for them.

True.

I would feel a lot better about the Diamondbacks' chances if Kendall was playing. Definitely give credit to Sweet Lou there.

Yeah, but they involve math and actual analysis of baseball. I expect few Cubs fans to understand.

There is zero chance MLB owners allow cuban to buy the cubs with his NBA record of commissioner baiting and reckless spending. MLB is too old school and all of the small market teams are deathly afraid of giving the cubs a dedicated, intelligent owner.

There is zero chance the cubs can float a $200m contract after committing to $400m over last year and right before or during an ownership change.

There is zero chance ARod takes another big contract from another sad sack organisation. He was ready to tear up his deal to get out of Texas, he will choose a proven committed winning organisation.
