Josh Hamilton, a Chicago Cub?

I was watching sportscenter this morning and i saw a story on the remarkable comeback of Josh Hamilton. During a part of this story, I found out a little piece of information that is very interesting; Hamilton was once a Chicago Cub rule 5 draft selection. He was then traded to the Cinncinati Reds. How could one major league franchise like the Chicago Cubs make so many front office mistakes over the years. Instead of having a centerfielder like Juan Pierre, they could have Josh Hamilton (as quoted by Justin McClary). Juan Pierre may be a stolen base threat, but come on, he cannot even compare to the numbers that Josh Hamilton has been putting up. Pierre is no longer with the Cubs. They have a new trio of outfielders. Jim Edmonds, Alfonso Soriano, and Kosuke Fukudome. Edmonds is past his prime, Soriano is injury-prone and a streaky hitter, and Kosuke Fukudome is a very inconsistent and poor hitter. It is a shock that he is even starting in the all star game with his numbers. However, with the Cubs fan base being what it is, he was a sinch to get in. To conclude my post, I would like to remind my Cubs Fan readers about their history; it has been 100 years since they have last won the World Series and moves like this do not help your chances for a title any sooner.
