John Donovan on CNNSI thinks the Cubs have the NL Central locked up.  Here is the link.  

He tries to soften his proclamation a couple of times,albeit poorly, leaving himself an out when he is wrong but it is clear he thinks the Cubs are the NL champs and the rest of the Central is weak and not getting better with their offseason moves. It is difficult to see why he thinks the simple acquisition of Fukudome makes the Cubs so much better despite the big questions they have on their pitching staff.  

At the end of the article he makes it clear he thinks The Stache was crazy to sign Gagne:  "As good as the Rowand signing may have been -- for Rowand, anyway -- how bad was the Brewers' decision to give Eric Gagne $10 million for one season of closing? He had a 6.57 ERA in 26 appearances in the second half of '07. Relief pitchers are hard to find on the free-agent market, sure. But that's ridiculous...."  Should be fun to email him this article next October after the Brew Crew wins the Central and Gagne plays an integral role in the teams'success.
