He also guaranteed a Cy Young for himself. He doesn't speak flawless English, give him a break. There's no reason why we shouldn't be competing for a division title and 90 wins this season, IMO.
The Cubs have a better chance than most NL teams, at a playoff run but lets be realistic, they are a few key players short of any serious contention !!!!
Yep, we're weak at the corner outfield positions and the middle infield positions, not to mention our shaky/unproven starting rotation and questionable relief pitching. We don't have a closer, we don't have a natural leadoff hitter and we don't know how well D-Lee is going to do coming off a troubling wrist injury. Other than that, we're stacked! :wink:
