Listen folks...the only problem we have in Chitown other than being 2nd best to the Cubs is the fact that this team is producing a carbon copy of last season...low AVG...low OBP...almost no SB...and locked in to most of the players producing the same #'s as last year...The here and now has nothing to do about scouting or free agent signings...
