What is it with the Orioles and the Cubs? Neither team can ever pull the trigger. No wonder why they live in mediocrity.

Well BiggestCubsFan:

I want to agree with you, but I can't. Yet. They COULD be better than them if they put it together without injuries, but I might as well keep that to myself because all in our right mind know we wont have an injury-less season.

As for Brian Roberts,
For the love of HUMANITY, EITHER DO THE TRADE OR LEAVE IT BE! Can you imagine what Roberts is thinking right now?

They'd never put DeRosa in the outfield unless Fukudome got hurt because he cant play CF and Soriano has LF locked up. Plus, Theriot (or, The Riot as I like to call him) is a tremendous talent who should be playing everyday. Cubs should roll the dice on Pie and Theriot this season, and offer DeRosa and Howry for Roberts, then let Marmol close. Dude was ace last year. So much better than DUMPster.

It's the O's that can never pull the trigger. The Cubs have made a ton of moves the past two years.
