The Chicago Cubs have a terrible track-record with sophomores- every rookie prospect they have always falls victim to the sophomore slump. Felix Pie was terrible in his second year with the Cubs, to the point that he was traded to Baltimore. Geovany Soto couldn't back up his ROY season, and Tyler Colvin couldn't follow up his 2010. Then there's Kosuke Fukudome. His expectations were set long before his rookie season, after spectacular years with the Japanese leagues. Unfortunately, he's not the big star everyone thought, but he's still doing pretty okay. And Chicago can take pretty okay.
Coming Tomorrow (?)- I need to make more. So it's a surprise.
