The Chicago Cubs 40-Man Roster and Contracts page has been updated to reflect transactions over the past three months.

Downtime

February 7, 2008 by cubsnet

CubsNet.com was offline for approximately 36 hours over the past two days. We apologize for the inconvenience. We have moved the site from its former host, OpenSourceHost, which was, according to them, unable to maintain the site.

Roster Page Updated

January 29, 2008 by cubsnet

I have updated the Roster / Contracts page to include Carlos Zambrano's salary information and the Jon Lieber signing. I have also inserted numbers for the minimum service guys, guessing whether they will be on the 25-man roster (which grants them at minimum a $390K salary) or in the minors (approximately $100K, depending on service time). The approximate total salary for 2008 currently stands at $123 million.

Squib Hits Added

March 21, 2007 by cubsnet

We have a new feature in the right sidebar: Squib Hits. Squib Hits is a CubsNet.com blog that contains just short posts not worth a full length front page article. Comments will be open. Here's the welcome post.

Cubs Career OPS+ Leader Page Added

February 24, 2007 by cubsnet

We have added a page on the top 25 players in Chicago Cubs history in Cubs career OPS+*, since 1900, with a minimum of 2500 plate appearances, to the stats portion of the site.

A (Temporary) New Look

February 10, 2007 by cubsnet

You'll notice the site looks different. I upgraded the software that runs the site, and now need to put the old theme back in place. Or maybe I'll come up with a new theme. There are also a few normal features of the site that are not functional yet, but most of the site is functional. Thanks for reading and participating!

UPDATE (6:25pm): The site is just about back at its normal look. Please leave a comment (if you have registered) or email (if you have not) if you notice any problems and do not like anything about the site design.
