Or could it be that Babyface Pierre could end up being our "christmas bonus" this year.

 

If he comes to the Cubs

 

1. Will they make a hat small enough to fit his head?

 

2. Will they make him wear it on his head bill forward?

 

Inquiring minds want to know!

 

But does he want a hat that fits his head? I think the majority of his power is derived from the baby-esque features. Pitchers don't want to be mean to a child, so they don't throw at his face when he tries to bunt for hits?

 

He really needs a mustache. I would probably be on the bandwagon for trading for him if he had a huge stache. I can relate to mustaches more than I can to being a baby. I haven't worn diapers in years, but I wear my mustache everyday.

 

SABR that! MCBA will rule the next decade in baseball! (Mustache-Centric Baseball Analysis).

 

All good points. The high socks, girlish stature, smallish head, hat asque. That has Little League World Series conotations.

 

I wouldn't want to bean a baby either. At totteler though that is a horse of a different color.

 

How sweet would it be if he had a Rolly Fingers handle bar Mustache?

This seals it. I want Juan Pierre, if only because he's a good luck charm. Kind of like a troll doll.

I was thinking more along the lines of Yosemite Sam, but that'd work too.

For those of you looking for a mental image of Hendry's backup/panic plan, think about a guy frantically shopping for gifts at the last minute, tossing anything and everything into a cart without regard for quality, cost or whether or not it's actually an appropriate gift.

I actually feel bad for the ppl that read this and went to bed thinking that it was a done deal.

I don't, I laugh at them.

 

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: to anyone who read this and went to bed and assumed Furcal was a Dodger.

Really, I feel bad for the people staying up all night worrying about it!

even if the Dodgers are just OFFERING this, It would be moronic for Furcal to turn it down. That's some serious cash.

Is there a return policy?

So do you think we're going to end up signing like 4 more pitchers? Maybe like 3 more catchers and Rubby Perez?

The Cubs offered more (not more per, but more) with more guaranteed years.

 

That's the weird thing about this. Turning down a 5-year deal for a 3-year deal flies in the face of all agent logic.

Right, but the link to the first one is not on the front page of the latimes.com sports section anymore. If you didn't have the link, you'd never see it.

He'll lose the reciept.
