Comment From Andy
Who makes it to the playoffs first? Mets/Astros/Cubs
Jeff Sullivan: Cubs, perhaps in 2015
Rizzo
@ the weather, and subsequent W
We already fell out of the top 5 draft spot we were projected to get, and these last couple of victories are costing us.

You right SportsJunkie, I sound like an idiot hoping we lose.
I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy these last couple of weeks of Cub baseball.
In a couple of years we will be sitting atop the NL Central....and this thread will flourish with a lot of new faces.

After tonight, Cubs 2014 draft picks have a 2.87 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 193 K/43 BB over 191.2 IP. Great haul of HS, college and LHP.
I will admit, they are a lot of fun to watch lately. I still think they are years away from getting close to the play offs but the more research I've done about the farm and such, I'm slowing spinning my tune. I'll admit, as much as I love the Cubs, I haven't watch but maybe a full dozen games the last couple years. I've watched more this years alone then the last couple years.
I've turned down SO many sets of free (and good seats) tickets but maybe next year, I'll start checking out a few games. Most of these young cats are fun to watch, that's for sure.
Repp'ed for that 700th post! "We all get rep!!"
Dully noted.
With that said, just for sake of this thread, what's everyone's thoughts on moving the Cubs outta Wrigley? I personally feel it would be a great move if they could build a park in the suburbs similar to what the Brewery's did. Easy parking, tail gating, easy on and off the interstate, etc. That stadium is amazing. And for sake of argument, I couldn't care less about the economical downfall Chicago itself would face. And obviously keep Wrigley going and maintained, maybe have some throw back games there.
In this season that we are "throwing away" to trade Shark, Hammel, Barney, Nate, Russell and Benifacio, etc, while growing these rookies, random pitchers out of nowhere, waiver wire pickups, all that.......

Some of the changes that will be happening at Wrigley over the next couple years.

Modernized, but still with the classic look and feel. Sucks for the rooftops, and won't be the same without the bullpens down the side, but hopefully will start to help the team and invite players to want to be there as they start turning the corner in the next year or two.
sportsjunkie congrats on your 700th post

Crazy how Theo and Jed managed to put together this patchwork rotation with some solid arms out of nowhere, I don't think they get enough credit for this.
Yeeeaahhhh I'm gonna have to say no to that one. It's not that I wouldn't love to have new amenities like new bathroom stalls , or a nice parking lot (hate getting gouged by the local store owners to park at their lots) but Wrigley is perfectly located where it's at. Surrounded by bars and clubs and just a few minutes from the lake and downtown.
They actually have a pretty nice remodeling plan with new score boards and new grandstands for the bleachers and the city even caved in a bit, but it's the rooftop owners that are complicating the situation a bit.
