So basically, the same wish list as every year. Lyle Overbay+a few middling relievers in their early-mid 30's sounds about right. yay us.

lol and maybe one year we'll actually get that lefty bat.

[Post Count Padder]

That's not news. Hendry's gonna strikeout again.

now, now, nobody said anything about a good lefty bat. were a few of our own failed prospects away from becoming the Baltimore Orioles.

When is Jim Hendry's contract up again?

[Sammy Sofa]

Now that the White Sox have Dunn the Cubs will probably make things even worse by signing Konerko.

As far as relievers go, Hideki Okajima and Bobby Jenks were non tendered by their respective teams. If we could get either for cheap, Id be very interested. Also non tendered, Todd "Fat Guy Who Sprints to the Mound" Coffey, who seems like more of a Jim Hendry target.

So what's more important - having lefties or righties, or having guys who can hit lefties or righties?

[Northside Blues]

Of course lefties and righties are more important than having guys who can hit lefties or righties. it forces the forty five minute half inning tony larussa special, complete with four pitching changes and 12 total commercials... $$$$
