Well, it's official. The Chicago Cubs have become the biggest joke in professional sports. For such a storied franchise, nothing in the world can explain how a team laden with so much talent could implode with such alacrity. Or can it? I'm going to try.

What can I say?
The Dodgers look like a team that won 97 games not the Cubs. They couldn't hit and they couldn't field!
Zambrano pitched well enough to win, but had no help defensively. 2 errors in the 2nd inning one should have been an inning ending double play. Lee booted a routine grounder UGH! Ramirez and Theriot then contributed their errors a little later. The bats didn't come alive till the 9th inning and then only briefly. So far this series has been hard to watch and I can honestly say I'm not looking forward to Saturday.

With the demotion of Rich Hill to Iowa, Sean Gallagher has returned to the North Side and with his return, I don't see any reason not to just put it in the starting rotation. He pitched well last season out of the bullpen and in the starting rotation. Just leave Lieber and Marshall in their current roles and let it ride I figure. Hill will probably be back within a couple weeks and Scott Eyre will be returning soon. This is a good opportunity to show and see what Gallagher has if he is going to be a part of this rotation soon or trade bait for July.

With pitchers and catchers finally reporting to spring training, it marks the start of the 2008 season where anything is can happen. It is a season where even the Tampa Bay Rays can contend for fourth place. It is a season where the impossible turns into the possible. Just listen to Ryan Dempster of the Chicago Cubs make a bold prediction, “I think we are going to win the World Series. I really do.” Great, just what a Cubs fans need to hear, another prediction.
