There goes the neighborhood. Just kidding... hopefully he hits 20 W's this year.

Who else would have started for them? Why is this news?

Because its Friday and we hate the Twins. j/k..well a little.

I thought Z told Lou that he would have no problem with Lilly being the opening day starter? Guess Lou wants Z to earn his money and finally break out of that rut of having bad opening day starts.

Well, he will be rested...he has had the off season, and that extra time that Pinella gave him in the NLDS

Well with the 90 million dollar deal, hopefully he is a little more relaxed not having to worry about where hes gonna be next year.

that was at the Cubs Convention he said that jokingly - they made mention of it. It was in reference to him being 0fer on opening day, in 3 attempts. But I think he wants it...

he's gonna snap out of it and pitch the way he did for a while in the middle of the season this year... CUB CHAMPIONSHIP!

This could be the year!

We'll end the Cubbies 100-year celebration in style!
