Crooked Pitch

In an interview Sunday night, Chicago Cubs manager Lou Pinella mentioned that Bob Howry was the early front runner to earn the closer job for 2008.

Howry, Kerry Wood and Carlos Marmol are expected to compete for the closer’s job in Spring Training. Don’t think that Howry closing is a done deal. Remember last season’s closer flip flop when Ryan Dempster was supposed to move to the rotation and Marmol was going to take over in save situations?

Write Howry’s name in light, light shades of pencil on your depth charts.
