GM, Manager, and get rid of Soriano and/or Zambrano.

Sell more tickets to the Cubs cruise featuring major league leading Manager in being ejected from a ball game Mike Quade. Quade + Hawaiian Shirt + Aviators + Rum Ham + Cruise = The Best Vacation ever.

Owner who knows what the fuck he's supposed to do.

Good lord where to start. Whoever the new GM is he/she will inherit a giant mess:

Trade, release, or have Big Dumbass whacked

Do not pickup Aramis Ramirez contract

Do not resign Carlos Pena, Reed Mantle or Jeff Baker.

Trade Marlon Byrd and try like hell to trade Soriano and Dempster

Trade Geovany Soto and Sean Marshall

Move Castro to third, Barney to SS and play LaMehieu/Flarehty at 2B.

Overall get a hell of a lot younger.


It should go without saying that Grabow, Lopez and Ortiz should not come back.

I am really warming to this idea of Castro playing 3rd.

I suggest you find those season tickets and make a deposit or 2 on them.

That's like saying, "my priorities for today are, breathing, eating and having sex."

lets hope they cancel the NBA season, so we don't have to read any of your Bulls threads.

I have a deposit for Ricketts and his crew. Just flushed it down the shitter. Fuck you Cubs.

Is Barney at SS a good move? Isn't he just Theriot v. 2.0?

Castro at 2B and Barney at SS should have been done in June,July at the latest. A GM not worried adout his job and why he hired the wrong manager would have done it at that point. (about= adout) . He should have also figured out at that time that the season was over and start looking beyond 2011 and find out what you have to work with for next season. These assbags wasted four months of evaluation over a lame duck so called manager and shot wad all down their leg. What do they have to show for it? 71-91. No idea what you are or what you have for the future. A really smart owner that has no idea about baseball. A year after buying the team he has all the answers and is MAKING BASEBALL DECISIONS HE HAS NO BUISINESS MASKING. Gonna be a long sad fucking ride.

Only 486 more games of Soriano

Some good ideas in this thread. My prevailing thought is that they have a shot to compete in 13 with so much money coming off the books next year.

They might. But with all the bullshit this year and lack of vision for the future I doubt it. Fail to plan plan to fail. Over 100 years of proof is in the books already.

Sell tickets......and bison dogs....maybe win a few games. Business as usual.

The first move of the off season has been made.

Hire Friedman as GM

Hire a Manager (Sandberg would be my choice)

Sign or trade for at least 2 starting pitchers. Real pitchers, not the Ortiz, Bush, Davis or Lopez variety of retred crap they resorted to this past season.

That's not likely at all in 2012. In 2014 if they have drafted well and developed players well....maybe. Maybe thats even a bit earlier than might be realistic.

Hire Francona now please.

Git on back there.

Wait, wasnt he taken off the disqualified list a few weeks ago but then subsequently just not allowed to pitch?

Oooh, that's a good one.

This would actually make sense and work. Logan Morrison for Big Z and lots of money. Big Z is tight with Ozzie and Morrison is hated by the Marlins owner.
