We all think we're cool. Len Kasper IS cool. Prospects are cool. Good investments are cool. Investments that don't pan out? Not cool.
The usual mix of good news and bad news. I can't wait for real games to start.
From Comcast SportsNet
- After winning the Jorge Soler sweepstakes, the Cubs are investing in another Cuban player, though at lower stakes.

From Cubs Den
- If you want to hang with the cool, spend some time with Len Kasper.
