Mock (2-5)

Zambrano (7-4)
I'm too much of an idiot with this stuff to be able to post pictures so sorry for that. I actually think that we will win this series, possibly even sweep. The good thing is that the Stros have Wandy and Oswalt on the mound against the Cards, so they might win that series. The bad news is that the Rockies go against Kershaw and Padilla but also go against co MVP/CY Young Wolf but in the end they'll probably win that series. GO COBS!

Other bits of news
According to WSCR and several articles, Ricketts has talked with Sandy Alderson about the possibility of him becoming GM. It also mentioned that he would bring in someone under Theo Epstein with the Red Sox if he were to get the job. It would be awesome if that person were Bill James. The guy is a baseball genius. Alderson could be a good GM and I imagine that if he and James were helping to run the team they would bring in some good underrated players.
Also, good news in the wild card race if we can actually make any noise there. Rockies ace Aaron Cook was put on the DL today.

I'm not sure which team has the 3rd highest payroll in baseball. I'm leaning towards the Nationals.

Zambrano is a top 5 pitcher in baseball in terms of salary. Go Cubs!

9-1

Go Cubs!

Why is Aaron Miles still on this team? Just for that, Hendry should be fired.

What are you talking about? We just gained a game on the Nationals in the battle for Bryce Harper.
