By the way his current season surpasses any season by any Cubs player.........................ever.

Hack Wilson drove in 190 runs in one season. NOBODY has ever driven in that many runs in one season.

A-Rod Denied reports!! NEXT!

The Tribune is probably trying to push up their visbility....btw...against MLB rules!

I dont think an active player can have a stake in a team. I am not 100% certain, but I believe that is the case. A-Rod is by far one of the top 5 best baseball players playing the game right now when you look at what he can do. He can hit for power, hit for average and he can steal a base here and there. I wouldnt sign him to a 5 year deal that is for sure. I say that a three year deal is more logical. But that won't happen.

Anyway, what is the status of Mark Cuban buying the Cubs?

I would be hard pressed to find one other player remotely close to Arod let alone 4.

Cuban is dancing right now, no time for the Cubs

The 4 I would choose would be Vlad, Holliday, Cabrera and Pena. But A-Rod is number one in my book. He is an unreal player. And willing to change positions without whinning about it. Say what you want, but the guy is a gamer and can play the game.

Didnt Cuban have like hip replacement? Also, what was up with that tux he was wearing the other night.

You're correct..no player can have any ownership position in a team.

I think Cuban would love to buy the Cubs...He was in the bleachers last week and saying all the right things. But the old boys network of Selig and Reinsdorf want no part of him in Chicago. Ironically, Selig supposedly wants a group to buy the Cubs led by a guy who is a monority owner of the Brewers. That is the ultimate insider's game

You got me on this one. 1930 was by far the pinnacle of ol Hack's career. Though he did not win the MVP or even finish in the top 5 that year. Can you name the winner?
