The All Star break marks the not-really-but-figurative mid-point of the season. It always seems like a good time to reflect on pre-season items, and how things have played out (read: cliche, but we're doing it anyway).

It is an easy time to look back with the benefit of hindsight... and regret.

The Chicago Cubs had a particularly active pre-season (and early season) in the transaction department, so a review of those moves and how they've played out is worth considering. Here, we're going to focus on the guys that the Cubs moved out.

Specifically, it is worth looking at all of the guys that the Cubs dumped like fat chicks before prom - and deciding the measure of regret.

Read the player by player review.

Are you actually asking this question? Are you serious? I could GM better than Hendry, and I'm praying that the Ricketts family takes over soon, then fire his dumb **** Instead of buiding on a winner, he dismantled a winner.

Hendry is an absolute idiot. This comes from a 49 year Cub fan.
