Id rather have him say that hes confident this is the team thats going to win, than have him say we're goign to suck or collapse at the end. Look at it as confidence. Who cares what Dempster says?

Dempster at least explains his thought process, and I agree with him. After reading the entire Dempster quote, I would have liked for Joe to post the whole thing.

Carlos predicted all his crap last year, and did it happen? NO. Ugh. I'm just slightly bothered, that's all. Don't talk about how it might happen... make it happen. On a lighter note, kudos to the payroll spreadsheet. I like it. Ryan was an IDIOT to say that. Carlos predicted all his crap last year, and did it happen? NO.

You've got to have someone protect A-Ram, which didn't happen last ear. I'd rather see DeRosa in the 2 hole. Except that the Cubs were neat the bottom in the number 5 spot in the order.

From a <i>need</i> standpoint, I don't it would be a necessity to win the title, or at least that's what Ryan Dempster thinks. Having him couldn’t hurt.

I think that theriot and derosa batting later in the lineup would be a good move. I also have read the Nathan rumors as well but doesnt this just throw another monkey wrench in the pitching rotation and bullpen scenario? We have several pitchers that are battling for a starting spot in the 4 and 5 spot like Dempster, Marshall, Lieber, Marquis. Then we have the closer role to deal with Wood, Marmol, and Howry are some of the names that I have seen that might be possible candidates. That is however that Dempster manages to win a roll in the starting rotation. Do we really need Nathan is all that I am wondering? Someone enlighten me please! I agree.
