I might chime in with my 2011 Cubs plans at some point, but first I wanted to mention how my Cubs roster ended in 2010 (before getting swept by the Red Sox in the World Series)
1. Soriano (don't laugh, he had a monster year for me)
2. Fukudome (vs. R)/R. Johnson (vs. L)
3. D. Lee
4. Byrd
5. Ram
6. Soto
7. Everett
8. Hairston Jr.
9. pitcher
Bench:
C Josh Thole
RF Nady
2B Eckstein
1B James Loney
CF Reed Johnson
1. James Shields
2. Dempster
3. Matt Garza
4. Hiroki Kuroda
5. Wells
LR Gorzelanny
MR Guzman
MR Samardzija
MR Bobby Seay
SU Joel Zumaya
SU Grabow (who actually had a stellar year for me)
CL Marmol
Notable AAA players:
Daniel Bard
Phil Coke
Caridad
Elijah Dukes
Castro
DeWitt
Marshall
Vitters
Colvin (who was performing horribly)
I think the only trade I made AFTER the real life transaction was Theriot for DeWitt. Other than that, I came up with the Garza, R. Johnson, Fontenot, and Lilly trades on my own. I went with Hairston Jr. and Everett for defense over Castro and DeWitt as I made my push for the playoffs.
