He is already better than any SS in the history of the Cubs with the exception of Ernie Banks (of course) and maybe Joe Tinker

That's true. I guess anytime your range factor gets almost as low as Jeter it is time for a position switch.

I guess Bill Dahlen but that was before 1900. TT will be better than Joe Tinker too.

I can't believe that two half way intelligent people are getting this nuts over Troy Tulipulitz.

Lets take it easy until this year. He produces same numbers or exceeds, then you guys can get on his horse...

Wow, he had a .987 fielding percentage with that range factor? That is absolutely sick. Ozzie Smith in 1982 is the only defensive season by a SS that even compares to what Tulowitzki did last year. And the kid is only 22.

He was born in my hometown.....well, across the river in Nelliston. He has the fourth longest hitting streak (42) behind Rose & Joe D and should be in the Hall of Fame. I got a T-206 Brooklyn Nationals card from 1909

I wish my pride and joy is 1953 Topps baseball complete....the condition is anywhere near mint, but I paid well over $250 for the Mantle & Mays each in fair to poor condition. The "high number" set though, is in great condition. I would rate mine set around $3,750 in it's condition.

Adding a player of Bonds' ability can never be a bad thing. The end.

This about locks it up. When a genius writer like Joel Sherman disagrees using rhetoric and supports Endy Chavez for the role you know you are right.

At the time they had to replace the loss of Duaner Sanchez. In the long run it was a bad deal, but they obtained Roberto Hernandez at the time.
