Cards Bench(Larue, Lopez, Greene) < Cubs Bench(Nady, Tracy, Colvin, Hill, Fuld)

Carpenter > Zambrano

???? < Samardzija, Gorz, Silva

Card's pen(motte, reyes, mcclellan, miller, boggs) < Cub's pen(grabow, guzman, caridad, marshall, samardzija, cashner)

Only a couple changes I've got for ya bro:

Second Base:
Schumaker< Theriot

Shortstop:
Ryan< Castro

Starlin Castro will make the squad either right at the beginning of the season or will be called up in May or June. The kid is an absolute stud, and is only 19!! That makes our bench probably as deep if not the deepest in the league. Also you forgot Hoffpauir. Tracy won't make this team either imo, and that will become Fontenot's spot.

Sorry, but Molina >>>>> Soto. Yikes, dude, what did Geovany even hit last year? .220? Not to mention Molina is the best defensive catcher in the league.

Yeah honestly, there is no logical way you can say Soto is better than Molina, at this point. Sure, the potential is there for Soto to be greater, but after this last year, Id take Molina in the blink of an eye over Soto.

Furthermore, I just about promise you Cardinals fans that you don't repeat the division this year. Revisit this on October 3 if you would like, but I'm about 80% confident the Cubs will take it this year...

The only difference between a Brewers fan and a Cubs fan is your belief that you will actually do something every year. No expectations, no disappoinments - Brewer fan motto. And who said I had an ounce of credibility, WHO?! BECAUSE I'LL KICK THEIR ***!

I always liked this one.....

By the way I love the "got rings" shirts...... Great groomsmen idea for all my cubs homer groomsmen!

Yeah because we are the ones with oversized, obnoxious signatures. Great you guys have more rings and I get it, but make your ******* picture smaller for gods sake.

Nah, then you wont even be able to see the cubs rings!:biglaugh:

While I have sticking my head in the midst of a good catfight, I feel obligated to point out the double fail in Final42b's sig pic...

There's the obvious Cub World Series FAIL, which did make me chuckle...
..but there's also a Card fan intelligence FAIL. With all the funny possibilities for major events since the Cubs' last Series win... Titanic, World War I, etc., the designer picked one that doesn't work.

The Wright Bros' first flight was in 1903.

There's also another WS ring missing for the Cards too! Must be older than a 3 years old.:wink:

Just a few edits
Pujols>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lee
Ryan>Theriot They will hit about the same average, but Ryans D is light years better than Theriots.
Molina>Soto. Hits for a better average and is a far superior defender.
Holliday>>>Soriano
Rasmus has way more potential than Byrd. Byrd only had a good year because of Arlington.
Ludwick>>>>>>>>>>Fukudome
Wainwright>>>Dempster
and just to be nice Freeze<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Ramirez.

We'll see if Freese even wins the 3B job, a healthy Joe Mather and Felipe Lopez will give him a run for his money.

Either way, they'll be better than Joe Thurston.

Ya i agree completely. I think Freese has the potential to put up a .275,25,80 line though, mather might be able to do similar if he stays healthy and Lopez will most likely hit for a very good average.

Soto lost 40 pounds and took 6 inches off his waist. In 2008 he was better than Molina in nearly every offensive category, but then decided to smoke the ganj and put on the pounds, leading to his sophomore slump.
