1)Are the Cubs for real? Or is there something that could cause the wheels to fall off?

[/ QUOTE ]

Sorta. Yes, that something is named Jason Marquis.

[ QUOTE ]
2)Same Q:Brewers. I heard their infield is error prone, will that matter to the Cubs in the long run chase?

[/ QUOTE ]

The Brewers are a great ballclub and have to get unlucky the rest of the way not to make the playoffs.

[ QUOTE ]
3)Some say Kendall is terrible, why's that? Last night's game was kind of a hint thought, but any stat reasons?

[/ QUOTE ]

Terrible offensively and defensively. The stats are .OBP, .SLG, and whatever the stat is called that measures how what % of base runners he's thrown out.

Yeah, but you can't put on a number on veteran leadership and gritty determination. Just watch him handle the pitchers, agrue with the umps, and bust his ass to first on those weak little grounders he hits by swinging at outside pitches with one hand while choking up......







HOLY GOD, [censored] THE HECK HAVE THE CUBS DONE BRINGING THIS GUY IN!!!!!!!!

I don't care about who is the best team right now nonsense. The cubs are raking in the Ws and all is right in the world. In my mind they are #1 and I could care less about any arguments otherwise.

The Cubs have been able to fleece the Bucs in years past. Hopefully Hendry can pull off another heist. Where's Bobby Hill these days? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Bobby Hill should be in the majors. He's probably better than most Starting MLB 2B.
