Sun Times article (RE: Edmonds):

Either way, one team source said, it's worth the prorated major-league minimum salary (about $280,000) to take a flyer on him, even if he lasts only a few weeks.

 

I don't have to be positive about him because he's not on the team yet. I almost threw up a little bit though. I hope if the Cubs will dump him quickly if he sucks.

Well. There hasn't been a Cubs no-no in my lifetime. Z has come closer than this game. I seem to remember one where he was extremely close. Let's hope he goes back to normal after a non-Z like 3rd inning.

 

It was in Arizona, and he'd have had it if not for a blown call at 1st base.

Was it arizona? i seem to remember colorado.

 

Definitely Arizona.

 

I still have video of the blown call.

 

This game?

Mr. Edmonds most certainly does suck, and in more than one way.

Greene K's.

 

He's awesome guys lets sign him!

nobody wants to sign him, they want to just trade marmol and/or felix for him.

 

i wonder how long until theriot's BA is higher than khalil's OPS

 

Might as well trade Pie for him. Might as well trade Pie for anything.

no, might as well make smart baseball decisions.

 

that would be nice.

That doesn't appear to be an option.

*rationalization mode*

 

Well, I prefer Edmonds vs. righties to Reed Johnson. All this really does is kill my fantasy that someday Pie would start regularly.

 

 

This is how I look at it. It doesn't hurt that for some reason I don't have the same Edmonds hatred that most seem to have.

 

But if he really is done, like some poster's who have seen him play say he is, then I hope they are quick to move on.

Is it official now?

Not until at least wednesday (when hhe clears waivers)
