Today's Game April 30th vs Florida Marlins
Well today we should get to see a great test for the Chicago Cubs. In this game there will be a few interesting facts shown that Cub fans are asking: Was our awful road trip just a fluke? Can we pick it up when we head back to the Friendly Confines? Will our lineup stay off the DL and eventually get HEALTHY? The latter of those questions might prove to be the golden key to the Cubs success. I believe that if we can somehow become healthy everyday that the team will again fight for the lead in the NL Central Division which we now sit 4th. We may be fourth but we are definitely able to make a run at it and leave the rest of the teams in the dust since we are only 4 games back. Hovering around .500 is not an option for this team. Management says they made the right moves this offseason but did they really? Heilman was a success but could we still use DeRosa?? Or how about Wood who was clocked at 98 consistantly in a recent outing? Gregg sure hasn't picked up the slack like they had hoped but the season is very young. The signing of Bradley has been a non factor since he just isn't healthy yet but everyone said that his health problems were behind him...WRONG!! O well I still am and always will be a die hard Cub fan but the disappointment will end at some point won't it? I would like to think so and hope that it can end on this home stand which starts tonight against the Marlins at 7:05 pm CST. GO CUBS!
