    Cubs Wait Til Next Year v2

    The second annual Cubs complaining thread is up! Feel free to join me!

    Dempster looked great yesterday, but Wood was wild and walked in a run. The only thing I have to complain about is how inconsistent the umpire behind the plate was. Multiple times he called obvious strikes, balls. Two times that were critical situations that would have gotten us out of that 8th inning.

    No game today, (I fucking hate that they put an off day in between the first two) so I'm going to have to get my fill through MLB The Show 12, and the two primetime games tonight.

    Shark pitched amazing yesterday, 8.2 IP, 1 ER (3R) as the Cubs picked up their first victory of the season.

    Now the Brewers come to town. I'm curious to see the reaction Aramis gets. I'd cheer for him.

    I'd also like to see how the bleacher bums treat Braun. They are going to rip him to shreds.

    Darwin Barney hit the first Cubs home run of the year (lol), and LeHair hits his first the next inning.

    Do they have a stolen base yet? If I remember correctly it was a good ways into the season before they got their first last year...

    Trade Starlin, he IS the cubs. They should be able to land some nice specs for him...

    You don't trade someone who is good making next to nothing.

    Not to mention a player at a premium position.

    It would have to be one amazing package.

    Maholm got rocked last night. 5 ER in the first inning. Cubs lose 7-4.

    Demp's good outing is wasted yet again. This lineup is going to struggle, and let me telll you, it's hard to watch.

    Are there any prospects that could be MLB ready by the end of May?
