Lineup: Rollins.305/15/62; Victorino .285/17/73; Utley .315/36/115; Howard .275/53/147; Ibanez .282/24/89; Werth .280/30/82; Feliz .255/16/58; Ruiz .257/8/54 Rotation: Hamels 18-6/2.89; Myers 13-10/4.25; Blanton 15-8/3.80; Moyer 12-7/4.38. Lidge will blow three saves and save 40 others. Werth will join the 30/30 club. Howard will not strike out 200 times.

If we stay healthy especially the pitching we can at least get to the Series again I think Howard can hit 60 this year and just beat out Utley for MVP

I don't get why so many people love the Cubs. Their offense is filled with injury prone guys that are getting up in years, and their rotation is a big question mark. Does anyone expect Harden to throw 200 innings, Dempster to repeat last year success, or for Big Z to suddenly reverse his big slide? Marmol is solid, but their closer is very beatable (Gregg blew plenty of saves for the Marlins). They will likely make the playoffs b/c of their division, but I think they're very beatable once they're in. Sports!
