Perhaps it's only the hollow afterglow from last night's win prompting this post (hollow due to the Soriano injury, obviously), but everyone by now has noticed that our once highly criticized Ryan Dempster is pitching like a major league #1. The Cubs might well have two (that's 2!) starting pitchers on the NL All-Star team. Way to go, Ryan!

This prompts my question: does this team really need to plow over the farm for another starter? I get as excited as the next guy envisioning C.C. Sabathia in a Cub uniform, even for a short time, but maybe, just maybe, he's not needed. Z, Dempster, and an improving Lilly might be all that's needed should the Cubs make the post season.

I might roll the dice for a left-handed bat, but. . .
