Originally posted by KellyJayAt least the Cub ownership is trying to put enough talent on the field to give them a chance. In Seattle, once a player develops some real talent, and demands a major league salary, Mariner ownership considers them too expensive, and trades them, or just let's them go. I hope the Cubs go all the way!
Could this be the end of the 100 year+ drought?

Obviously, teams like your Mariners or my Reds should never make it to the big dance because they are small market teams.
