Credit where credit is due

Last spring Jacob Luft of SI.com wrote - "Years from now, the Cubs may rue the trade of Dontrelle Willis to the Marlins, in which they received the high-salaried duo of Antonio Alfonseca and Matt Clement.

Willis emerged seemingly from nowhere last season to become one of the top left-handed pitching prospects in the game, going 10-2 with a 1.83 ERA at Class A Kane County and 2-0, 1.80 at Class A Jupiter.

The reports on him are nothing but glowing, and many believe he will either make the club out of camp or be a midseason call-up at the latest."

Man did he nail that one on the head.
