i think this year is the year. im mean the cubs have a much better team then they had last year, and plus derrek lee is back and him and ramirez are just a good combinantion as ortiz and manny. and also the cubs have a much better lead off hitter, alfonso soriano who i think is gonna one of his best years. so i think the cubs are going all the way even tho im a yankee fan!

I have to say its one year away...just for the simple fact of the announcement today that the club will be sold by the tribune company in 2007. We still need a decent 2 or 3 pitcher and a closer that is a little more reliable than Dempster...other than that we now have one of the most powerful lineups in the league...the 1-5 spot can and will strike fear into the hearts of opposing pitchers...also you have Carlos Zambrano (who will...WILL win the Cy Young Award) and watch out for Jason Marquis and Wade Miller to have very good seasons....They will make it into the playoffs and possibly the world series...but i give it one more year til they biring a championship to Chicago.

Sorry...but NO, next year is not here as their pitching is going to do them in this year. Look at the staff and explain to me why you would sign a fly ball picher (Lilly) or someone who has control problems and other issues (Marquis) and consider that an upgrade? The bullpen is in shambles, who is the closer Dempster? lol I wish it was next year for the Cub fans though, they do deserve a winner.

I really believe they will win the division this year and the Brewers will win the Wild Card.
And the Cubs will lose the World Series to the Devil Rays in 7 games. Ha!
I'm serious about the 1st statement

Highly doubt it. The Cubbies just don't have the pitching. Offense puts fans in the stands, pitching wins championships.

Nope, Cards win again and the Astros once again get the Wild Card slot.
