I'm not disagreeing with that. Just simply stating what is there.

I definitely think he will get better both offensively and defensively.

Before he started hitting for decent power, I would have gone as far as to say that he'd get a Gold Glove before a Silver Slugger, not sure about that anymore though.

ummmm...... what? Whether or not you want the Cubs to stay at Wrigley is irrelevant. How can you not like to just watch a baseball game there?

I love watching Cub games at Wrigley BUT the park i think is killing the GM when they make the team. Think about it. April and May its cold and wind blowing in, which is why alot of guys struggle to hit in those months for Cubs, then June-August its hot and wind blows out alot showing why Cubs lead NL in HR in July and August, then when September hits its back to being cold and wind blowing in. How do you build a team with Wrigley? 3 months you need a fast/small team and then other 3 months you need a powerfull team to knock the ball out of the yard. Honestly best thing to get are 20-20 guys but theres not that many across baseball. When Cubs did try to get a 30-30 like Soriano it just backfired. So again i love Wrigley but for team sake i wish it would blow up.

I don't think Wrigley or Chicago itself is a deterrent to signing topnotch FAs... or ever really has been. I think the fact that the team has been so bad for so long overall is the biggest drawback. The Cubs were also well known for not being very FA friendly until MacFail (yes I know how to actually spell his name) became pres. Even then, the team dolled out cash to the wrong guys.
