I’m not a fan of cubs but I’ve always seen them as a club with very talented players but very weak pitching…why won’t they trade their young up coming players so that they can win…win now when Zambrano is in his prime??

Their only constants are Aramis Ramriz, Derrek Lee and Michael Barret (when these guys are healthy)…but it seems like most of the time these 3 are never in the lineup together because of some odd injury

Also they have players like Jacque Jones, Cliff Floyd, Matt Murton, Felix Pie, Angel Pagan, Ryan Theriot, Cesar Izturis (gold glove winner and former all star)…don’t you think they have way too much hitting talent?

Dempster and the lousy bullpen blew a 4 run lead yesterday in the bottom of the 9th…why won’t the cubs trade of one of their prospects for a solid middle reliever/set up man or future closer (Okajim, Broxton, Shields (ana), Zumaya)?

Then they can use Dempster as a part time closer and as a set up man. I like their offense but the pitching sucks
They can’t use all that hitting talent and plug em into the lineup all the same time…even if they do, they have to keep rotating and players will not develop rhythm and be comforable in the game

Don’t you think they need to deal a couple of their outfielders and a middle infiedler for relief pitching???
Oh yea I forgot their 2nd biggest FA acquisition…Mark DeRosa…super utility guy…they have him on top of all these outfielders…dude’s still in his prime.
their starting pitching is above average fsho with a solid core of zambrano (whats up with him this year?) , lilly, marquis, hill and wade miller
