 Hey, Cubs fans! Tired of another long winter? Wrigley Season Ticket 2007 is just what you've been waiting for!
Other preseason annuals cover all of baseball, and only provide a glimpse inside the ivy. But Wrigley Season Ticket 2007 can quench your desire with 112 pages of the most in-depth and thoughtful Cubs analysis, and beautiful full color photography!
After an off-season of spending and re-building, the Cubs come into 2007 hoping to reclaim a spot atop the NL Central. New manager Lou Piniella, along with free agents Alfonso Soriano and Ted Lilly as well as holdovers Aramis Ramirez, Derrek Lee, and Matt Murton, have Cubs fans thinking that this won't be another miserable year of failure.
Wrigley Season Ticket 2007 provides a perfect reference point for this season, the past, and the future, featuring a thorough overview of the Cubs new-look roster, as well as an in-depth profile of Piniella. Along with a preview of the 2007 National League Central competition and an examination of the Cubs' rookie pitchers, fans get to explore recent Cubs history. Included is an analysis of the team's injury history for the last five years and its impact, an evaluation of general manager Jim Hendry's moves, a look back at the historic 1967 Cubs, and a celebration of Mr. Cub--Ernie Banks--as he turns 76.
Moreover, Wrigley Season Ticket evaluates the entire organization as well, not just the majors. Within these pages fans will find information on the team's top prospects, a Q&A with prospect Jeremy Papelbon, a feature on Felix Pie, and a discussion of the organization's overall lack of interest in on-base percentage. On the business side, readers can see how the Cubs are covered in the media and learn about the Cubs' ticket-brokering (or do you say scalping?) agency.
It's all packed into more than a hundred pages of ad-free Cubs information unlike anything else on the market. Written by Cubs fans for Cubs fans, Wrigley Season Ticket 2007 is all you need to fight off Sox- and Cardinals-itis!
