   It's time for those famous 4 words! "Wait until next year" I'm afraid Cub fans are in for another long wait. It's clear the new owner is dumping payroll. Derrick Lee is gone,Zambrano is going. Hard to believe they had the 3rd highest payroll in baseball & can't quite go all the way.

   Myself I'm a Cinn.Reds fan & have been all my life. We've had 10 or 11 years straight of losing. I do wish Brandon Phillips had kept his pie-hole shut with his comments about St.Louis. Reds dropped 3 straight to the enraged Cardinals.

Looks as if we have several young players who should be exciting to watch in the coming years. Marlon Byrd and Starlin Castro are exceptional players. New player Blake Dewitt also looks promising.

Yep, season is over now for the Cubs, just give the younger players some more experience. I am hoping they get rid of Zambrano.

I would encourage all Cub fans to root for the Padres for the remainder of the season. They are an exciting team, and they are in 1st place!!

 Tuck,

  I agree with your comments on the Cubs. Though I'm a Reds fan fact is I'm running out of years to wait on the Cubs. A team rebuild usually takes 3 years unless you realy open up your checkbook. It's taken Dusty 3 years to have a winner in Cinn.

  Cubs have had some 1st class mgrs.but always seem to fall short.
