I hope you’re right in that they give the ball to someone and he’s the closer. I think it will be more like Marmol 25, Howry 12, Wood 8, but I could see it going your way. As I said in the top twenty closers post, the Cubs will have a boatload of saves for someone(s).

Jim Hendry has a hard on for Wood, so I think that he will start out as the closer, with Howry getting the occasional spot save. I think that Marmol is best in the Bill James “bullpen ace” role, getting at least 8 wins, shutting down the 7th.

My prediction: Wood gets 40 saves this year, Howry 8, Marmol 3.

Nice.

What’s your prediction on the Cubs closer this year?

Maybe it’s just the Cubs fan in me, but this was my team name last year:

The Mordecai Middle Finger Browns

My gentleman caller’s recent team was called: Let me think on it baby baby let me think on it let me think on it and I’ll give you an answer in the morning.

Shouldn’t there be a character limit?
