JIMMAY!

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

Yep

Gregg got his three outs. He almost got burned like that against the Dodgers when Scales made an error at 3B with two outs.

Bouncer to second

two outs.

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

Do the Cubs lead the majors

in hitting into double plays. Seriously per above lets sign Glavine. Let him try pitching but really use him to pinch hit
when we need a sacrifice bunt. Current MLB leader.

We need someone who can actually SACRIFICE A RUNNER

Which Glavine can do BETTER than any position player. Let him pitch clean up and he can start after the next injury but I want
SOMEONE on the team who knows how to bunt ( too bad we let Marquis go).
