Also mentions Conine once again in this article but says neither could be available until June 15. Millar is also great in the clubhouse in addition. I like his bat.

I'd b happy with Millar on the cheap. Nice career OBP and can back up a few positions.

He still uses a bat? I thought he went up there swinging a wet noodle by the looks of his production.

While it could be just a slow start, Millar has been abysmal this year.

Ugly. In a hitter's park, no? Is he traditionally a slow starter?

2003-2005 splits show April to be his lowest OPS month at 722. He is at 813 overall during those years.

It would be neat for him to win a World Series with Boston and our Cubbies. Not saying it would actually occur, just wishful thinking!

Id like Millars bat!

I'd much, much rather have Millar than Conine.

Is that like saying I'd rather be kicked in the head than punched in the nuts.

[rjchapma]

Id like either of them if it doesnt cost much. They both have decent bats better than Nefi.

It's more like kicked in the shin or punched in the kidneys. It's not like we're pursuing Tuffy Rhodes.

Going after Tuffy Rhodes would be like having electrobes taped to the scrotum.

Is Pujols available? He's having a good year.

Haven't you heard? He's bad around the clubhouse, you know, with the flipping bats and everything? :wink:

What are you talking about? That kind of production would be GREAT for our offense!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The sad part is that's actually pretty close to true.

we already got john mabry not hitting so no need for millah

How about Corey Patterson? I hear he's having a fine season for the O's...

The subject of rumors regarding a possible trade to the Cubs, first baseman Kevin Millar told the Providence Journal he would have to think about approving a move to Chicago.

 

Here's the sad thing about the Cubs current situation. The fact that such a crappy player would have "to think about approving a move to Chicago" tells you HOW LOW this team is, right now.

 

Not that I endorse going after Millar: The Cowboy Idiot, but it does show that right now... there are some players that may not be all that interested in going to the Cubs.

[bhogg]

It's obvious why a player would have to think about a move to Chicago.

 

They know that unless they get a hit in their first 18 at bats, they'll get booed out of town.

But it won't affect their playing time because of Baker. For somebody like Millar, that could be attractive.

Yeah, but if we pick up Millar he and Mabry could platoon at first. It'd be perfect!
