Hey Cubs fans, first of all thanks to all 45 voters on our last poll on the right sidebar of my blog. Brian Roberts is clearly the guy that most of you want to see leading off for the Cubbies. Today I have a new poll up over on the right side of the blog main screen. The question is "Who will you miss the most, Mark DeRosa or Kerry Wood. Kerry was a member of the Cubs for a long time. It didn't make sense to me that they let him go right after he finally had a healthy, solid season. On the other hand, some people had an idea that Woody might go, but no one expected the departure of fan favorite second baseman Mark DeRosa. Also, I think the loss of Mark leaves a bigger hole than Kerry does. We have Marmol, Samardzija, and Gregg who can take over for Kerry. But the loss of DeRosa takes away a great guy in the clubhouse, a guy who can hit the ball out of the ballpark, a guy who has a solid OBP, and a guy who had great defense at 2B.
Well feel free to comment with your thoughts and please vote on our poll.
