Long Term Z
It looks like the Cubs and Carlos Zambrano are close to a long term deal:
The parameters of the deal have been discussed, with both sides agreeing to five years. How far apart they are on the total package is unknown, though the Cubs' offer is expected to be under Barry Zito's $18 million-per-season range.
At this rate, the Cubs are going to challenge the Yankees for highest payroll. :-)

The Cubs payroll for 2007, even with the incremental 4-5 million from Zambrano's long-term contract, will still be less than 115 mm.
SS, that figure will jump when they acquire Arod.
