I think Chicago is potentially a good environment for him. Those fans need a hero with a bat, so they'll embrace him. Whether or not that fixes his problems... who knows?

He let his GM go out and get role players. Scott Brosious, Chad Curtis, Paul O'Neill, Luis Sojo. He went out and got guys that played baseball the right way.

George never stays out of baseball operations. He always has the last say. I just feel he has changed his outlook but has always been the man in the front office. That new outlook isn't the best one now but he is not going anywhere any time soon.

Well, with the Cubs supposely raising their payroll up to 115 million, that's probably possible.
I'm sure the Cubs are going to try to keep Aramis. I would be surprised if Aramis walks, but that can depend how much he is asking. Wood is not a FA yet, but will be. The Cubs would be very foolish to pick up that 13 million option for an oft-injured pitcher. One way the Cubs could do is sign him to a 1 year base salary as a reliever (closer) becuase Wood's starting days are over. The Cubs would be foolish to let Zambrano go. I wonder if the hiring of Pinella for the Cubs can make A-Rod opt out of his no-trade clause, and go to Chicago?
