Cubs are NOT picking up Trachsel's option.

I read that earlier today. Is that your opinion, or is that from Hendry's mouth? Because it reads like you're speculating that they wont pick it up.

Using the CT method of dealing with Bruce, I see.

 

:lol:

It's based on very good sourcing with the Cubs. I talk to them every day.

 

Thanks for the great news, Bruce.

I love all the raging on a blurb by Ken Rosenthal on Rotoworld. Let's all take a deep breathe and relax. All because Rosenthal thinks it'll happen doesn't mean it will.

 

FYI, Ken Rosenthal isn't just "some writer". I can't remember the last time he was wrong and pretty much all season long hes scooped everybody to every story. I pray to Len hes wrong, but Ken deserves all the credibility in the world.

 

The great Rosenthal is wrong...

So glad to hear this. Thanks Bruce.

I was hearing:

 

• The Cubs need to trade Aramis Ramirez.

 

• They even need to trade Derrek Lee.

 

• They've picked up the option on pitcher Steve Trachsel's contract.

 

No, no, and no, and then I turned the radio off.

Smart man. :D

Good to know. I just wanted to make sure this was coming from them before I got my hopes up. Thanks!
