DeRosa a Cardinal (p. 5) + DL'd (p. 13)

[Old Style]

I'm going to puke.

[DiamondMind]

Is this a sick joke?

 

Will he get a standing O (again) next time he comes to Wrigley?

[Little Slide Rooter]

So basically, we could have had him for Jose Ascanio and a PTBNL. Or Kevin Hart and a PTBNL. or Justin Berg and a PTBNL. Hendry better go out there and make a trade of his own now, because the amount of Hendry hate is about to skyrocket.

[JWCUB]

I'm going to puke.

 

I'm sure Dero is right now.

[JonJayCutler]

So last year the Cardinals have Miles and we have DeRosa and now the tables are turned. God I love baseball. :banghead:

[doschi]

Truth. I am now an official Hendry hater.

[TruffleShuffle]

yeah that's worse than what we gave them. hopefully he really loves the cubs and pulls an aaron miles for the cards.

[DiamondMind]

I hope they throw batteries at him from the bleachers.

[JonJayCutler]

I hate to say this, but Fox having a good couple days was probably the worst thing that could have happened. Hendry is probably now convinced he found his third basemen.

Don't tie this to Fox in any way. Fox being a success at the major league level only benefits us. Keep your focus where it should be...on hating Hendry.

we need a second baseman not a third baseman

 

hendry...christ...i don't even have the words anymore

[Little Slide Rooter]

This might be a good thing. Now that Aramis' return is on the horizon, they can focus on fixing the pen which is a bigger problem.

[nolanwood]

I'm going to puke.

 

Me, too. This is awful. :sick:

[TruffleShuffle]

(a) chris perez is better than the names you listed.

(b) i like how your PTBNL is just a five-letter asset that apparently does not differ from one team to another.

That is hating on Hendry. Its nice to see Fox doing well but we'll never know if his recent good performances were enough to keep Hendry from re-acquiring DeRosa.

[A-Cal]

i hope the initial reports are untrue or the PTBNL is pretty damn good because this is absolutely ridiculously lopsided

[JonJayCutler]

Doesn't a player have the power to veto a trade like Peavy did? Mark would do this if he truly cares about the Cubs.

[A-Cal]

this pretty much also leaves the cardinals sitting quite pretty to acquire matt holliday

 

if that happens...GAME OVER

 

we aren't winning the wild card

He's on a roll.

[TruffleShuffle]

hey here's a trade idea - cubs get hanley ramirez for 3 PTBNL.

[A-Cal]

cardinals fans are saying they hope it isn't daryl jones...who is daryl jones?

[nolanwood]

The Cubs are 16th in bullpen ERA (Cards are 17th). The Cubs are 25th in runs scored...

[Butterscup1679666578]

wow just awful. hendry drops the ball again. i've defended him quite a bit, but he's killing us.

[ELCABALLO45]

DeRosa is not in the starting lineup tonight, and was reportedly not on the field with the rest of the team during warmups/batting practice. Speculation is that he has been traded...

 

Winner

[TruffleShuffle]

some guy in their minor league system.

 

that wouldn't make any sense. it's either a true PTBNL, or it's a guy who just hasn't been identified by the media yet. if it's a PTBNL, then it will be the indians' choice of a few guys down the road, or a guy who was drafted last season and hasn't been in the cards' system for a year. if the indians already know who the guy is that they want and the cardinals agreed to trade him, he'd just be announced as part of the deal right now.
