PostHeaderIcon A Mighty Wind

What's that breeze you just felt stirring? The winds of change? Jim Hendry on Bean Burrito Night? Nope. More likely, you just felt the precursor of the mighty gales that will be generated by Carlos Pena as he whiffs his way through the 2011 season at the Friendly Confines. Pena signed a one year deal with the Cubs rumored to be worth ten million wingwangs. While Pena did hit 28 homeruns last year, he struck out 158 times, just 38 Ks shy of his batting average of .196. Christ Almighty, even Koyie Hill managed to break the .200 mark last year. Pena is a solid fielder and at least Hendry didn't give him a four year contract with a no trade clause.
