How about the new PS3? Or that Nintendo Wee-wee thing?

With Lee, Ramirez and now Soriano they have some pop for sure in that lineup.

Now if they can just get some pitching.......

The Cubs are now even more of a lock to lead the league in solo home runs.

Derek Lee is going to hit so many times with no runners on, it isn't even funny.

That contract is worse than Beltran's....Beltrans + 1 year...that's insane.

Whaaaaaa?

And the good news is they still will suck. All of their stud young pitchers will go down with ingrown toe nails caused by the devasting wind from the windy city and be on the DL the whole year, like always.

I wish the Cubs would not of gotten Soriano because I like Alphonso. He's that fast skinny guy who jacks homers and can't play defense. Gotta respect that

only 6 years 90 million guaranteed...

the other 2 years and 46 million are kickers/incentives/blah blah blah

well, all contracts are going up every year...that's for sure...

That's a hell of a lot better.

Now they just need tp sign Barry Zito and JD Drew, and I'll have a little hope!

Geezus, can they pay these turds anymore???????

Sure-Oz 11-19-2006 06:40 PM

Maybe Soriano will use that cash to learn english?!

Beltran's deal isn't that terrible. Soriano's deal ends when he is 38.

Beltran's ends when he's 34.

The Cubs are so stupid. If they are putting Soriano in CF, what does that say about Felix Pie?

Alot of the Cubs prospects don't turn out......friend of mine is a fan of theirs and told me a long time ago Pie isn't nearly as good as they'd have you believe he is, and virtually every Cubs prospect is massivly overrated because they have no clue how to rate their guys.
