Will CO still have a boner for Randy Wells come July 31st (will Wells be any good)?

No. Wells is a solid 4/5 starter and that's his ceiling.

Name the 5 man rotation for 2012.

5 man rotation I think will be Garza, Dempster, Cashner, Wells, Mcnutt

Barney, the Cubs can't upgrade yet at the position.

Marmol will be traded by Spring Training?

Cashner is not an answer to name the 5 man rotation...

What is wrong with Wells being a solid #4 starter at league minimum? That's a very, very good thing to have.

2B is Barney. He's cheap, at least.

We can't upgrade? Really? I can think of a number of better players than Barney.

Marmol is staying in Chicago.

Who can play 2B? Please name them. It's one to say Barney>Dustin Pedroia, which is wrong.

Who could the Cubs acquire to upgrade at 2B.

No.

Darwin Barney at league minimum is better than paying Kelly Johnson a FA contract?

No.

Johnson had a down year and was still as good as Barney. Barney just flat out sucks. Johnson has shown that he can be better than he was last year.
