also, Caratini is Puerto Rican. Another Boriqua to compliment Javy

Okay, some on Twitter are saying we're getting cash; others, that we're sending cash. Gotta love the deadline.

We are sending cash.

Well if he doesn't have a weak little baby arm, then he's intriguing. It's a shame we're losing such top-tier talent though.

If Russell and Bonifacio are top tier players you may need to raise your expectations ever so slightly.

Is he a person we should care about enough to mock his opinions?

This caught my eye:

In total there are 195 users online

Most users ever online was 942 on Wed Oct 29, 2008 9:21 pm

 

942? Holy [expletive].

 

Think there were a lot of spambots

 

You sure it wasn't about releasing Casey McGehee?

@ESPNChiCubs Baez not coming up to replace Bonifacio, per Hoyer

[bjam12]

Now the question is who gets added to the 40-man?

Bring up Armando Rivero.

Is Starlin now our most tenured Cub?

 

Edit: Yup he is.... at 24 years old he is the longest tenured Cub on the roster.

Now officially don't care about this trade

[Cubswin11]

Guessing Watkins comes up to replace Bonifacio?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

wait, I didn't know Javy wasn't on the 40-man yet. him.

[ddwyer]

So where does Caratini fall in our prospect list? Somewhere from 15 - 25?

With a very loose definition of top tier players.

[tfarks]

Yayyy, Watkins. Suck it Hoyer.

He does raise an interesting point.

Guess I didn't consider that when the trade went down. Now I'm not so sure I like the move.
