They are still averaging over 32k per game with a team that has been crap for awhile. Their payroll keeps decreasing so I'm sure ownership isnt too worried yet. The no shows may be more of a concern and more will be known about that after next years preseason tickets go on the market. I'd say at least 20 MLB teams would love the "problem" the cubs are having now.

Oh, and Castro sucks, but he was here already. They also failed to trade Kevin Gregg for anything, which might be the worst non-deal of the season.

Is it possible that no team wanted gregg? The other one that has been in my mind for awhile is Lindstrom. I would figure the Sox would have dumped him even for a bag of balls to save some salary. Lindstrom has a 4M club option, which seems to be a stretch as the reason he wasnt dumped.

I still get grief from north side moron fans. I told one guy you may want to watch a game and see how many fans are dressed up as empty green seats.

The league has caught up to Rizzo it seems. He may be the biggest bust in Chicago baseball history for the money and years he got.

I went to Wrigley last Tuesday for some staff bonding (boss gave all of us free tickets), and I could've sworn that everyone there could've fit in the infield seats on the lower deck. Huge swaths of empty seats were present, including some full sections. There were some people wearing Marlins gear too.

I saw a highlight on MLB.com, which showed the grand slam by Lake on Friday against the Brew. I had to rewind and pause the video a couple of times because I could not believe what I was seeing. As he rounded third, the camera shot was looking from the upper deck first base side towards the third base side, and I could see almost the whole upper and lower deck on that side. It was so empty, it reminded me of some of the games I remember going to as a little kid in the late 70's and early 80's, before the 1984 explosion. I remember the upper deck actually being closed on some of those days. I could not believe I was seeing Wrigley Field, and a sunny, warm, Friday afternoon, and it looked like may a few thousand people combined upper and lower decks, at least on that side of the park. |

I've seen Sale dominate some of the best lineups in the American League this year. Look at his last two starts against New York and Detroit. Hell, he's got three wins against the Tigers this year. Let's see the great Samardzija post a sub-3 ERA in the American League. He can't even get his damn ERA below 4 in the National League. It's just now starting to dawn on these Cubbie idiots that Travis Wood has been that team's best pitcher from start to finish this year. I've heard two different commentators this year say Rizzo "will one day go for 40 and 120 every year." Laughable statement. Miguel Cabrera has had only two seasons of 40 and 120 in his career. Pujols did it five times, I believe, and Frank Thomas did that three times. Joey Votto has never done that. Nobody goes for "40 and 120 every year." Ridiculous to place those expectations on anybody.
