The cards are better than thier record...as for the cubs...well they are the 
cubs....
The pitching has been a lot better than I had expected....Holt is a nice 
suprise and so is Tom Martin (both rookies) also Kyle has had good control 
even when his curve ball is not working (and he has the best curve in the NL) 
so I think it will do nicely....As for Bags I got a good laugh the other day 
when a caller on a talk radio station said he was washed up, he said Bags no 
longer can hit for power...well he is #1 on the team in RBI....he must be a 
bad player huh?? :-)
