Through it all, I still like him.

Me too, actually.

Me three. And they're still not going to get decent value for him even with his strong finish. He should start opening day next year.

If they can get him to blow up at the team in the dugout during spring training and suspend him in time to return opening day and pitch like Awesome Z, all the better.

Seriously, he basically lived out my dream of calling everyone on the Cubs a bunch of dickheads. Good on Z.

And lets face it: Z is the odds-on favorite of actually locking the rest of the team in a FIREBARN now that Lilly is gone.

I love his .198 BABIP and 3.8% HR/FB in September.  His sub-2.00 K/BB is the tits as well.  Fyren pashun, though.

He's saying he's a fag for bringing stats to a cockfight.

Good, because he ain't goin' anywhere.

All is not lost though. The Mets will probably still deal Castillo and Perez for Snork or Silva. AMIRITE?

Cliff Lee to Phils.
Zambrano to Yankees?
Profit????

If the Cubs can drain the Yanks' farm system, they should go for it. Maybe they should also give Cashman the opportunity to RIGHT THAT WRONG and bring back Soriano.

If the Yankees re-sign Kerry Wood, 16% of the Cubs 2002 active roster (plus Larry Rothschild) could be in uniform at Yankee Stadium Opening Day. Should the Cubs have just held out eight years with this bunch?

I don't want Z traded. I love him so much and I know that leads me to overstate his abilities, which are pretty fucking good but not HOF like I frequently tell myself. I just can't get behind the idea of trading him. I also am in great fear over what the Cubs would get back. That goes back to my overstating how good he is but if they don't get a HOF second baseman out of it, I call it a fail

You should probably read through what you write before you actually post it, Yeti.  This is pretty fucking ghey.

I'm sure the Cubs can flip whatever prospects over to the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs for their manager.
