Cubs Boss Sees 1976 Improvement For Cubs
Cubs skipper Jim Marshall in Scottsdale predicts the team can improve on 1975 and reach about 80 wins. He cites progress from Ray Burris Steve Swisher Manny Trillo and Bill Madlock plus a strong outfield and a young pitching staff as reasons for cautious optimism. Shortstop is a weakness with candidates Dave Rosello and Mick Kelleher, and Marshall may platoon them. The club projects midpack in the NL East and not a title contender.
