According to Mlb4u.com-

Jason Marquis, RHSP--St. Louis Cardinals
He appears set to sign a 3-year, $27-30M deal with the Cubs. The Pirates had also expressed interest. He had been seeking 3-years, $30M to 4-years, $36M.


Not a bad deal at all, he is a work horse.. He gives you alot of innings and could battle for the 4th or 5th spot in the rotation.. Alot of fans dont like him but i do and here is why-

He pitched 194.1 innings last year.. we need that on our team.. He has alot of decisions which means he at least keeps your team in games and doesnt loose things bad.. He went 14-16 last year.. That would have been 2nd on our team in wins!!! He has a career 56-52 with a 4.55 Era which is better than alot of free agents on the market. He had 33 GS and 30 decisions. He is only 28 years old and for 3 years 27 million is a deal in my opinion. Oh and he is 21 and 13 in day games.. favor Wrigley.. I like him and thats why i wouldnt mind him to be in cubbie blue.

I agree with you on a lot of stuff but i def. dont on this one. three things.

-the guy gave up 35's last year wait til he gets to wrigle

-along with winning 14 games to be 2nd on the cubs, he would have lead them in looses with 16 so....

-THE GUYS ERA WAS OVER 6 LAST YEAR!!!!!!!
