It's understandable for consumers to be happy about and test out their new purchases: Porsche drivers would want to take a spin in a new ride, new homeowners have dinner parties, and kids with new toys play with them until their parents snap. But there's a fine line between enjoying something new, and going overboard in praising it. New Cubs owner Tom Ricketts lost sight of that line . “I’ll...

Jim Hendry. His name alone feels me with mixed feelings, not to mention a craving for Krispey Kremes. One could argue that the Cubs have enjoyed one of their most successful runs during the Hendry years. One could also argue that some of Hendry's moves have hamstrung the team as well. If you were Tom Ricketts, would you keep Jim Hendry or look to bring in another GM to take his place? Let's examine...

Only six players reached the triple milestones of a .300 batting average, 30 home runs and 100 RBIs in 2009, the lowest figure since the strike year of 1994 when only three made it.

There were 30 players who hit 30 or more home runs in 2009 but only six of them hit over .300. Here are the six:...
