Lessons Learned

Once you've pitched in the big leagues, results don't matter. Somebody will pay you to do it again. - Jason Marquis

When one considers the fact that money is no longer an object to the Cubs, this isn't an awful signing. The needs of last season haven't yet gone away: the Cubs need arms any way they can get them. With Carlos Zambrano, Rich Hill, Ted Lilly guaranteed rotation slots, it's up to Marquis, Mark Prior, Sean Marshall, and Wade Miller to battle things out for the #4 and #5 spots, with Juan Mateo and Angel Guzman lurking as dark horses. If Marquis chucks up another 6+ ERA, he'll be out of the rotation by June.

Starting a sports blog exclusively about one sport when said sport isn't in season makes it very easy to put off updating. - Nick D.

It's somewhat difficult to not rant about the deification of Devin Hester and insolence of AI in the middle of December. I'll do my best to get updates up at least a couple times a week based on various rumors and minor moves. In the meantime, if you do stop by, any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I blogrolled you & will check back every couple of days. I love the Cub Reporter, et al, but sometimes one wishes for just a little bit of Cubbie news & views to break up the Devin Hesteria the day.
