BRENLY: EVEN WITH LOST SEASON, CUBS CAN'T RUSH PROSPECTS

July 14, 2011 / 2:19 PM CDT / CBS Chicago

(WSCR) The Cubs have the second worst record in baseball, and haven't really
been in the NL Central race since back in May. The assumption is that sooner
rather than later the team would begin calling up some of it's prospects.

"I think maybe it's a little premature for that," Cubs TV analyst Bob Brenly
said on the Danny Mac Show. "I mean, obviously when you have a season that's
going in the direction that the Cubs' season has gone, the idea is to get some
guys up here, get them some valuable experience at the Major League level,
continue to play the young guys that are already on the roster ... with an eye
toward the future."

It's been clear for sometime that he Cubs' season was over. And since that
became obvious, the fans have been clamoring for the organization to turn the
team over to the young players. Brenly agrees with that logic to an extent.

"You don't want to rush guys to the big leagues, maybe, prematurely," he said.
"[You don't want to] get them up there in tough situations and have them
experience, you know, horrible failure at their first go-round at the Major
League level. The most important thing is that you feel that young players are
ready to make that next step. And if you don't think they're ready, then you can
set their careers back a couple of years if you rush them to the big leagues to
quickly, even under the circumstances that we have here on the North Side this
summer."
