I guess we can all hope the Chicago Cubs and general manager Jim Hendry start taking some pages out of the Philadelphia Phillies playbook this off season. The Cubs as everyone on the planet knows haven’t won a world series in over 100 years. If that’s not hard enough on basically anyone that bleeds Cubby [...]

Mike Quade’s Road Less Traveled, But Not Abandoned

When Mike Quade took over for Lou Piniella, no one expected him to be a permanent fixture inside the Chicago Cubs clubhouse. Nearly two months after picking up his first win as Cubs manager, Quade has the job on a full-time basis after signing a two-year contract on Tuesday. Now, few expect a former interim [...]
