Jayson Stark Believes There Will Be A Big August Deal

[8-8-88]

What about the Cubs, Hoops, do you think Hendry will be content to sit tight with what they've got, or do you think there could be a waiver-wire move for another impact player if they're still close?

 

the cubs will be more in a position to be sellers than buyers in the next couple weeks.

Leave the deadline where it is. The NHL deadline, for example, is like a day before the playoffs (okay, a little earlier, but might as well be...) That's dumb. On the contrary, it feels like the NFL deadline is like Week 5 or 6? Early.

*sigh* It's definitely starting to look that way. I'm an optimist to a fault, but even I can't bring myself to feel good about this team anymore.

 

This sucks.
