So, since Cubs are going youth and rebuilding....

[Northside_slugger]

... we can almost already kill any talk of signing big free agents like Cliff Lee or Adam Dunn, but, that's ok. Let's focus on the future of the team, since that's what this ownership seems to be doing, and focus on the 2011 MLB Draft.

Who do you guys want to be picked? A fielder, a pitcher, best player available?

My dream pick, is pitcher Sonny Gray from Vanderbilt. I think he could be a strikeout machine in the majors. Love his style. The kid was incredible as a freshman in college. He should be gone though.

My second dream pick would be 2B Zach MacPhee from Arizona State. Some compare him to Dustin Pedroia (who also attended ASU) and others to Ian Kinsler. They say he's the hardest working kid in college.

I'm not a draft expert or anything but I think we should always go BPA available in the first round.

Wow, where to go with this.


...they need to start offering deep discounts and start slashing ticket prices.

...they need to move the team to Omaha and put an expansion Cubs team in Chicago with new ownership.

I'm fed up w/ dealing w/ you doing nothing but picking fights w/ Cubs fans in this forum. You act like you're the best poster here and your e-penis is the biggest, when really you're no better than anyone here.

Then dont post here. Thats your colleagues solution. Of course you could also just make a comment in response and then hide behind mod action by locking the thread after making the comment. Its not like you havent done that before.

I was hiding behind a thread where all you did was berate and attack Cubs fans? lol
I'm not gonna keep a thread open after you wrecked it and allow you to continue to worsen it. If you want to test me, I'll make your life a living hell on CCS.

Eh, I think they should pick a 1B or 3B in the 1st round.

Can we get back on topic? this is kinda why i left forums in the first place. we need to get atleast one free agent.. or maybe make a big trade or make a couple big signings in 2011. as for the draft i dont know squat but you go bpa in the first round or two and hope it works out

I really just want to see the kids come up and play. I don't want any FA's, but that's just my opinion. As for trades, I'd just unload what we can for spects.

No you wont.

Wanna bet?
