Well...

Chicago Cubs: 43-119

That kinda speaks for itself, no? The Anaheim Angels lost 108 games too... slight comfort but not really.

NL Central Standings
New Evil Empire: 94-68
Pirates: 85-77
Cincinnati: 77-85
St. Louis: 70-92
Woeful Cubs: 43-119. We paid $478K per victory.

The Hitters... First, the platoons (numbers are combined. Burks did have 240 AB vs. RHP but that's excluded for the exercise)
2B Mickey Morandini and Miguel Cairo: 566 AB - 84 R - 168 H - 40 2B - 1 HR - 50 RBI - 85 BB vs. 74 K - .297/.377/.381/.758
3B Dave Hansen and Kevin Orie: 570 AB - 68 R - 145 H - 35 2B - 11 HR - 63 RBI - 96 BB vs. 96 K - .254/.363/.396/.759
CF Brian McRae and Ellis Burks: 538 AB - 85 R - 136 H - 29 2B - 14 HR - 57 RBI - 80 BB vs. 77 K - .253/.347/.402/.749
1B Cecil Fielder and Scott Stahoviak: 187 AB - 23 R - 41 H - 11 2B - 8 HR - 23 RBI - 23 BB vs. 42 K - .219/.310/.394/.704
LF Robin Jennings and Rickey Henderson: 521 AB - 62 R - 114 H - 9 HR - 46 RBI - 51 BB vs. 97 K - .219/.313/.288/.601

Not bad production, huh? All the platoons provided either average power production or solid enough OPS if they were a single player. LF was just horrible though and I blame Rickey for that.

As for the other notable hitters...
1B/RF Pedro Valdes: 578 AB - 77 R - 164 H - 33 2B - 16 HR - 93 RBI - 69 BB vs. 99 K - .284/.361/.431/.792
C Mike Figga: 604 AB - 68 R - 139 H - 38 2B - 14 HR - 75 RBI - 39 BB vs. 162 K - .230/.276/.376/.652
SS Tony Batista: 614 AB - 58 R - 127 H - 26 2B - 15 HR - 77 RBI - 36 BB vs. 131 K - .207/.254/.336/.590

Cubs Free Agents (Guys who will hit FA this offseason)
CL Mel Rojas: 32 years old and just walks too many guys (5.40 BB/9 in 1998).
CF Brian McRae: 32 years old and making too much ($2 Million+ for zero pop)
2B Mickey Morandini: 33 years old and poor defensively.
1B Cecil Fielder: 36 years old, poor defensively, and 36 years old.
LF Rickey Henderson: 40 years old and only thing he can be is a pinch runner now.
CF Ellis Burks: 35 years old with no defensive ability at all.
MR Tony Castillo: 36 years old and unspectacular.
MR Kent Bottenfield: 30 years old with league average ability. Basically one of those dime a dozen relievers.
