Garza a Goner?

The big question of the day is Matt Garza... MLB.com reports that there is a stirring in the Cubs management regarding the best arm in the cubs rotation, IF you can consider it a rotation.  At this point there are more questions then answers regarding the five, or so, guys the cubs will send to the (as our British friends would say) throwers hill.  Last year the cubs sent 9 different starters to the hill, they have since traded Carlos Zambrano, and Sean Marshall.  Who will take the number one starter role?  Matt Garza has what it takes to be at the helm of a rotation. If Randy Wells can find consistency this year they can be one heck of a 1-2 punch.  That being said, and with Theo Epstein looking to overhaul, look for Garza to be sent packing.  He has the most potential on the trading market, and the return can be overwhelming.  Just one question... When are we going to start rebuilding the rotation?  It seems like we are having a fire sale in the bullpen and completely abandoning ship, which after the way the past 3 seasons have gone, might not be the worst idea.  But starting pitching is what any good team is built around.   

The 2012 Opening Day Starter role is up for grabs... Someone IMPRESS US!!
