text: who would the cubs have to give up to get a-rod?   zambrano...and they wont do that, the rest of their young pitching is hurt and worth nothing...wood, prior, guzman...the other young kids that pitched for them at the end of the season were inconsistency and unspectacular.  cashman said he's keeping a-rod...and i believe him.  remember when the cubs hired dusty? jeff kent was a free agent that year, and the news was the cubs were going to sign him (because he was dusty's boy), he ended up with houston...i think the a-rod hype is the same. he's not coming to the cubs just cause he played for lou pinella.
