Those Whacky Cubs











They've got quality pitchers. They've got quality hitters. They've got the big name manager. They're seven games under .500 in the craptastical National League. A couple of weeks ago they were actually averaging more runs than their competition and still losing the majority of their games. They've got three starting pitchers not named Z with ERAs under 4.00 and over 200 innings pitched and they're still losing the majority of their games. On the upside, after Sweet Lou got suspended and Zambrano fed dirty knuckles to his own catcher, the Cubs have won three of their last four and the large mammal is starting to look like his former self. He even hit two singles yesterday. Oh, also, they've finally developed the technology to transplant the brains of Prior and Wood into indestructible titanium bodies. Only they'll be in the stomach of the bodies. Like Krang from Ninja Turtles.
