Wood's thinking sounds as destroyed as a famous boombox
Kerry Wood got his day at Wrigley Field on Sunday, and he spent part of it lobbying for the Cubs to bring Sammy Sosa back to the organization as something. Wait, why do the Cubs need to bring back the worst teammate in the world? OK, Sosa wasn’t...

What is Tom Ricketts' number?
As Carlos Marmol rolled through this week with an earned-run average under 1.70 in his previous 12 outings, manager Dale Sveum said he expects Marmol to be the Cubs closer next year. Nope. Sorry. Not buying it. Granted, 1.70 is a nice number number, but...
