    like i said "no" cubs dont produce enough runs per game for any pitchin to be good, if they found some bats, they got the pitchin staff...mostly all there pitchers are young, they have (Kerry Wood, Kyle Farnsworth, Mark Prior, Carlos Zambrano, Mark Clement, Remlinger, new guy Wellemeyer(threw really well against Astro's)) but if you look at all them pitchers, they all throw gas and are very young, they just gotta find some people who can hit and they'll have a chance of winning it all

    I think Zito has as good a shot as any of the young guys.

    I don't care if they bring Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, and Lou Gherig back from the dead - Prior is not going to average 20 wins a season for 15 years.

    maybe a little extreme, but i agree with the idea in whole. in this day and age there are too many specialized pitchers, closer, 8th inning set-up guy, a guy for the set-up guy...managers don't have to stick with a starter as deep into a game as in the past. they have quality pitching in the bullpen available. i think the fact that in a bad outing, the managers do not hesitate to yank a guy in the 2nd-5th innings will keep anyone from reaching 300 wins. gotta make it thru 5 to get the win. thats my reasoning anyways.

    From what I have seen so far, I think that Prior has the potential to reach 300
