Cubs fans Gage is gone but remember the plan for this non-rebuild year was give full time 3rd base to an untested rookie, an insult to both Shaw's development and the team. This is a front office problem. The poor ricketts are barely breaking even, it was a 3B or millions for an inauguration party.
