Sweet Lou interview at Baseball America

http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/majors/features/262959.html

Nothing real earth-shattering here.  I particularly like how he discussed handling Prior and Wood.  Give Woody as much time as he needs assimilating to a relief role.  And "IF" Prior is healthy it will be a boost the likes of signing a top flight free agent pitcher.

I just have to say it sucks talking about Wood and Prior this way as I really felt we were on the verge of competing every year through 2010.  I guess "turning the page" is not all that bad.

Another note--BA comes out with the Cubs rankings on Jan 29th.  I'm sure we'll be pretty disappointed with the overall state of our farm system and talent pool of players.
