Why do you think we will see a U shaped recovery, or any recovery at all in 09? Not to agree or disagree but some of your underlying thought as to why is what Im asking for clarification on

And the second. World Series? 25% chance. Im a die hard cubs fan. Zambs Dempster Harden Lily BLANK (the Nt Dame kid as the 5th or would you keep him in relief?) is a pretty good staff, Marmol cant close games at all and Greggs not great, so a mddle of the road bullpen plus the lineup is the same (Well, we will be signing Bradley in a few days to give us the left handed RF bat with some pop we need) so I dunno. We look like a slightly better team then the one that won 97 last year. Id like to see us trade Kosuke and DLee and get some cheaper talent in at those positions (We didnt trade Vitters maybe use him?).
