Nefi Gone!! Neifi to Detroit for C Chris Robinson (high-A)

[thedaymen]

I don't have anything to add, I just wanted to join the party.

[Soul]

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halle-luuuu---uuuu--uuuuu---jah!!!!! 8)

[OleMissCub]

any other trade details yet? I am sure we are picking up come cash. The prospect is somewhat worth it.

 

Well, they just said Robinson was named the best defensive catcher in the Tigers' organization last year.

 

So he probably can't hit, but hey Blanco won't be here forever.

 

319 AB, 92 H, 22 2b, 1 hr, 47 rbi, 6 sb, 72 so, .338obp, .367slg, .288 avg

Good luck in Detroit Neifi.

 

And NEVER EVER come back to Chicago unless it's on an opposing team.

The Sun just came out! Kids have started playing in the streets again! Flowers are blooming! My life seems more meaningful!!

 

 

*weeps with joy*

pretty sad that the best move hendry's made in the past two years is to partially undo one of the worst moves he's made in the past two years.

OK........

 

So then Detroit's insane. The guy has good D and at least passable O, and they handed him to us for the human no-playoff guarantee. :lol:

Can't you just let us revel in the moment? I've been waiting years to hear these words.

will this exceed that Macias topic?

[jwhatti]

How in the world would someone with Neifi's great ability to catch the ball make it through waivers???

[Brian]

OK Jimbo now you have to find somebody to take your crappy left handed starter/reliever.... or am I getting greedy?

[forbez18]

THere has to be something we are missing here. Doesn't look like this guy is a star or anything, but does look to be a servicable back up catcher. Nefi should have been able to been had for just about nothing.

 

I guess the Tigers are set with Pudge but a good back up is always needed.

[Drew Doughty]

figured I'd join in on the fun

I'm holding my jubilation until after the commish formally approves this one. I'm sure he'll have a press conference within the hour.

[Mizzou]

Words cannot express how happy I am right now. I'm incredibly hungover right now and have felt like crap all day... it is now a great day!!!

[JonnyRed]

Today is a great day to be a Cubs fan! And to think I saw him actually get on base twice yesterday (I knew something in the world was amiss when that happened and now I know why)

2 positives:

 

Clear sign that Dusty won't be back. Neifi was probably re-signed this offseason at Dusty's request

 

Thats 2.5 million that we can use to get a top starter this offeason...Zito,

Schmidt, or the guy from Japan.
