Well I have finally received that e-mail that I have been waiting for. The opportunity to purchase Cubs season tickets is right in front of me after being on the waiting list for over 10 …

Spring training is under way down in Mesa and the Mike Quade has the squad pretty much setup for opening day and the 2011 season. I don’t start getting excited for the season until I start buying tickets to games and that all started today.

Has Jim Hendry and the management done enough this off season to put the Chicago Cubs in position to make a run at the National League Central? Garza, Wood and Pena will be called upon to put up great numbers while Ramirez, Dempster and Zambrano need to step up and have careers years in our opinion if the Northsiders plan on making it to the playoffs.

Ryan Dempster earned his first victory since April 23rd as the Cubs beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-0 and moved within four games of the Reds and Cardinals who currently lead the division. The bats weren’t hot but Derrek Lee had a huge two-run homer that added insurance before Carlos Marmol shut the door in the ninth inning.
