Cubs new closer blows save already...

Looks like it is Gregg for the save tonight

Maybe not since Hill just doubled and Theriot scored from first to give the Cubs a 4 run lead.

Gregg let up a run in the 9th and made the inning interesting but came through in the end. Good win. Go Cubs Go.

so for the past 2 years i've built up expectations
and been very optimistic...you know...cub fan like

no more...0 expectations. Hoping that pans out for the better this year...haha

You can expect to make the playoffs barring serious injury. As Billy Beane once said, "It's my job to get them to the playoffs, after that its a crap shoot".

Remember when the Cubs went nine years between playoff appearances 89-98. Making the playoffs is good and if they do it often enough it'll probably happen.
