Cubs Looking to make Some Changes?

They need some! The Cubs pitchers have been doing fine this week, but the bats have been silent! I cannot remember a week this bad in past years. Things just really don't feel right for this year. I think last year they had the perfect combination, and it felt like it was the year. Maybe the year that we've all been waiting for will happen a year that the Cubs get hot late in the season and manage to get in the playoffs, who knows?

Since the Peavy to the White Sox trade was rejected by Jake, lots of other rumors involving the right hander have been spreading around MLB. Here are those involving the Cubs:

• Peavy prefers to stay in the NL.
• The Cubs still have interest according to Buster Olney.
• Paul Sullivan says that the team could go after Jake after ownership situation has progressed.

I've also been hearing a lot about Jake Fox lately. He's tearing it up at AAA. The Cubs are wasting a roster spot on David Patton, who has not been used in the last 2 weeks. We could use that extra hitter instead of Patton! Also, the Cubs have been looking at some 2B-men including Mark DeRosa. Could the Cubs get De-Ro back?

I'll keep you posted.
