Report: Maddux signs with Cubs

All that talk for nothing...

MESA, Ariz. -- Pitchers and catchers report to the Cubs' Spring Training camp today at Fitch Park. And Greg Maddux might just be there.
The Associated Press reported late Tuesday night that the four-time Cy Young winner agreed to a $24 million, three-year deal with the Cubs.

According to The AP, the deal is pending a physical, but Maddux, who turns 38 in April, is expected to report today with the rest of the Cubs pitchers and catchers.

No big loss for the Yankees (if they were really pursuing him). I like the Cubs, too... gotta admit it.

So excited for baseball to start!!!!

Good for him, and the Cubs ...

While I wouldn't have minded if he came to the Yanks, I thought that we really didn't need him, either . As I posted yesterday, he's a little past his prime .. lets focus on young pitchers now!

LET'S GO YANKEES!!!!!

I didnt want to say it before..
but now the Yankees are really in trouble!

My God.. trouble.. trouble.. trouble.
If the Yankees don't get more pitching and the hitting doesn't work out.. their season is in big trouble. Trouble. Trouble. Trouble.

No left-handed pitching, a bunch of maniacs in the clubhouse (and the bleachers.. those people are sad-little psycho-paths), high ticket prices and burnt hot dogs making people sick, it's going to be a a long year at the Stadium. Sure, they'll make the play-offs.. but then the Red Sox will run all over them. So sad.

Soooo........ go Cubbies!

And I'll be sitting in the stands right behind the plate at Shea.. because no one else in their right mind will be there... Happy Days!!! The Amazin' Mets.. gotta love em!

There's no curse... All superstition.
Yes.. I will stand proudly with your FH watching our boyz play. My FW would probably join you at the House that George bought since he tends to buy everything.. oops.. did I write that? My bad. LOL

And when the Yankees are bad again.. which will happen someday.. and the Mets are good... I'll leave it up to your FH whether or not you can come in or not and sit down and enjoy some REAL baseball with us.

Superstition for what, 86 years? Wow ... !!

Even when the Yankees are BAD (they were in the 80s and the early 90s, and I still loved them) I would still prefer to watch a BAD Yankee team over a GOOD Mets team anyday!

And any team that has a BASEBALL (Mr. Met) as their mascot has MORE problems than I care to mention!!!

We're the Yankees -- we do not NEED mascots!!!
