Most fans at Wrigley are watching the game. That's why it instantly gets so loud when something happens.

With Wood's initial failure as a closer and Fukudome's fabulous debut, have your expectations for 2008 changed?

Yes - We won the NL Central last year by just two games, losing this one could haunt us in September.

Yes - Another example of a "Cubbie occurance". This will be a rollercoaster season.

Rookie to Iowa

October 28, 2007 by Jwiertel

I heard this story about a rookie ball pitcher who made the jump to triple A in just one season of work. Is this as rare as I believe it to be? I was in Iowa watching the Cubs play Omaha and this hard throwing free agent right hander came into the game. At first I thought nothing of it but later came to find out that the kid was in Mesa for the entire season. No stops on the way, just straight to AAA. He was throwing 94 with a sick circle change. Retired all six hitters he faced and then the season was over. Any thoughts on this type of jump? Where do you think the cubs will send this prospect at the start of next season? The kids name is Mike Christl and he looks like he has a ridiculously high ceiling.

new book on 1908 season

March 21, 2007 by cait

Attention, Cubs fans – new book on the 1908 season is just out. (I know because I wrote it). It’s called Crazy ’08 – How a cast of cranks, rogues, boneheads and magnates created the greatest year in baseball history (HarperCollins, $24.95; foreword by Robert Creamer). The Chicago Tribune reviewed it warmly on March 18, and Sports Illustrated liked it, too (the March Madness cover). Go to crazy08.com for more.

Does Chicago have enough pro sports teams?

December 16, 2006 by diana

There are teams mentioned in this story that I didn't know existed!

Always room for more?

Is there a saturation point for the Chicago area sports market?

If the Tribune company sells the Cubs, what kind of owner would you like to see?

November 12, 2006 by FearlessBear

An individual in the mold of Jerry Reinsdorf (or Don Levin) who would keep the Cubs at Wrigley and build a winnnning team.

An out of town billionaire like David Geffen or Eli Broad?

A financial partnership that is looking to "flip" the team as an investment.

A great big corporation that wants to have the Cubs as one of their "brands".
