ESPN.com: Prior out for season? Cubs brace for possibility

I never wish for someone to get injured, but I won't exacty be shedding a tear if he doesn't suit up this season.

 

By the way, any manager in the league would have left their ace out to throw 120 pitches in the stretch run of a pennant drive. That's what he gets paid for. Blaming Baker for working his horse is ridiculous.

 

i was doing some trial preparation on saturday with the gameday of the Cubs game on...i could not believe when Baker left Wood in during the 9th. i was waiting for the pitching change...and it didn't come. it didn't even come after wood let 2 runners on with nobody out. he kept him in, and he ended up not having enough gas. he threw over 130 pitches, total, i think. unbelievable.

complain all you want about jimy. but i'd much rather have a coach who uses his bullpen than one who blows out his starters' arms.

 

With Prior out, I agree the Div. is ours, but it wont' be as sweet as it's without their ace...

Still, winning is winning, regardless of whose up there...

 

we lost oswalt for over a month last season....i don't think the division crown was any less sweet for the cubs.
