  • Cubs 2013 Preview: a Bit Better Pitching, but Rebuilding Still Grinds Along Slowly
    Cubs 2013 preview: A bit better pitching, but rebuilding still grinds along slowly By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, March 29, 2013 Theo Epstein is getting double for his money these days. First, the former lifelong Bostonian is getting a valuable education in Chicago politics as the three- cornered debate over Wrigley Field renovations shows how Clout City USA really works. And yet all the arguments over whether the Cubs should get seri- ous with Rosemont and consider moving if they don’t get a renova- Cubs GM Jed Hoyer (with wife Merrill) and boss Theo Ep- tions deal very soon give Epstein stein have once again constructed a roster that can be and his baseball operations depart- disassembled via mid-season trades. ment a big break. Off-the-field issues involving Wrigley Field, whether the installation of lights, falling concrete or Arne Harris’ hat shots, are always far more than sideshows. They become the main story, relegating the Cubs’ on-field fortunes to notebook status. The taffy pull involving Tom Ricketts, Rahm Emanuel, Tom Tunney, the rooftop owners and the vil- lage of Rosemont absolutely shifted the Cubs’ spring-training countdown to Opening Day to secondary news-angle status. If all focus was on the team itself, the conclusion would be a sub-standard roster with a slew of place-holders that is being intentionally fielded for the second-year in a row. Worse yet, as Epstein vows a rebuilding-from-the-ground-up strategy, there are no pitching phenoms or fresh-faced hot rookies as attention-getters to make the continual losing more palatable.

    A’s News Clips, Friday, June 18, 2010 Oakland A's bullpen lets Dallas Braden down in late loss to Chicago Cubs By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune Dallas Braden was lined up for a well-deserved win, and the A's were poised to leave the Windy City with a series victory. That script never played out on a picturesque Thursday afternoon at Wrigley Field. Oakland's bullpen laid an egg in the late innings, and Kosuke Fukudome's walk-off RBI single off Jerry Blevins in the bottom of the ninth gave the Chicago Cubs a 3-2 victory in front of 36,942 fans. "That's a tough way to lose," A's second baseman Mark Ellis said. "Give (the Cubs) credit. They had some good at-bats there at the end." This one had to sting on several fronts for the A's. They could have carried some momentum into St. Louis as they begin a challenging weekend series against the Cardinals tonight. Instead, they watched the Cubs win their first series since taking two of three from the Los Angeles Dodgers on May 25-27. Oakland also spoiled an excellent start from Braden, who threw six innings of one-run ball and left with a lead but still hasn't found the win column since his May 9 perfect game. "Dallas pitched so hard. He gave us a chance," manager Bob Geren said. With the first-place Texas Rangers gathering steam, the A's have lost 11 of their past 16 and are a season-high six games out in the American League West.
