Bleed Cubbie Blue, a Chicago Cubs community

"The Cubs, sources say, have been doing their homework on three key Mets prospects -- left-hander Robert Carson and right-handers Kyle Allen and Jeurys Familia. " If we got those 3 pitchers, i'd be really happy. Familia would be the centerpiece prospect, but all 3 are pretty highly ranked in the Mets system. I believe #9, #13, #23. What do you guys think?

I figured this would happen as soon as I heard the Cliff Lee news this morning. If we are trading Lilly, we better get some good prospects; if not I just keep him and take the picks. Who do you think the Mets would give up for Lilly? I don't think Mejia or Davis are possibilities.

I like how this author has the balls to suggest that the Cubs trade Carlos Marmol. It's an awesome idea, only if the Cubs are able to get a huge prospect in return. "Like Carlos Zambrano, I have reached my boiling point with the Cubs organization. There have been worse seasons than this one, but rarely has one seemed this disappointing."

Ryan Dempster and his wife Jenny launched their new foundation Sunday night. It was a great event and TONS of Cubs came out to support him. Check out the link for lots of pics and more info...

I like that we are in the hunt and could have him in the bullpen. And Ted Lilly said he is a fan of the move, so it can't be all bad, no matter what BLou says about it.
