Here's What Some Miserable Cubs Fans Have Had To Say Lately...
When is Andy McPhail going to live up to his reputation of making something out of nothing? He has a pathetic lineup and plenty of room under the salary cap. There is no question that the team is solvent financially with 25,000+ fans showing up every day to watch the carnage. Andy, you need to get it together or get out of town. 7/31
Do the Cubs have a bullpen coach? He is doing a fine job with Mr. Rojas. How can you argue with number like Mel is putting up this year? 0-4 with 6 blown saves. Sure it falls in line with the past debacles in the Cubs' bullpen, but when is enough enough? 7/31
Playing in the "friendly confines of Wrigley Field pretty much dictates that pitching will never be successful with the Cubs. It seems that any other team in a similar situation (such as Colorado) would realize this and cease their efforts to turn their staff into another Atlanta Braves. Maybe the Cubs need to realize this and take a hint from the Rockies. Perhaps a lineup based only around the first six hitters would be better than attempting to win with a balanced team. Forget the pitchers, stock up on big hitters! 7/22
How can a baseball team stay so mediocre for so long? 7/22
I have seen every Cubs game for the last two years. All I think the Cubs need is a good reliever and Offense!If Sammy Sosa can turn up the volume with Mark Grace it'll be a little better then. Also, Mel Rojos has to stop blowin' games, I don't know how but I if he can the Cubs can add on a few more wins.And I shouldn't forget about the trades. If they could get a young and good secondbaseman and shortstop other than Dunston and Sandberg it'll cut down on about 20 valuable errors.They also have to trade McRea for a good hitting center of right fielder. I can go on forever but I'll stop. I hope maybe the Cubs will listen to and maybe do better in the standings in a few years. 7/27
