    i would be fine with that. getting abreu instead of bradley would be fine, too.

    oh you've gotta be kidding me yeah, and we're going to trade jerome williams for conor jackson. you guys say cub fans overvalue their prospects...haha ;)

    no - he'll find an excuse to trade him for cristian guzman if he has to. hendry seems dead set on getting rid of walker.

    read the whole thing. this deal has been dead for hours.

    I doubt it. We've had conversations like this before (like when Murton and Greenberg were brought up), but very little came of it. Murton got the start on his first day, but then sat against righties forever. Yeah, but Murton performed to such a level in that 2 months on the roster that Hendry may not give Baker a potential platoon mate for him in LF. In other words, he's taken Macias and signed Mabry instead of a younger LH bench player. Mabry hasn't played everyday in 8 years. Mabry not playing everyday in 8 years isn't going to stop Dusty from giving him way too many starts. Murton is pretty much locked in to start in LF, but I have a feeling Dusty will still keep him on a short leash. Hendry isn't sending any messages to Dusty. They tend to think alike a lot more than most of us wish they did. It;ll stop Dusty from starting him when Mabry gets hurt from playing too much. Plus, I really, really have faith that Murton showed Baker enough to earn more patience from him that was given to Dubois, Choi, etc. I hope you're right - I really do. I just think it's a little idealistic to assume that Murton is pretty much guaranteed the starting job for an extended period of time.

    I thought it was Hillebrand,not Gross. no sir. Hillenbrand was not included. Ah, then Milwaukee got robbed~! nah, better for milwaukee. hillenbrand sucks.
  12. ltb

    36 pages on acquiring pierre, this better get longer
  16. ltb
    Lowe and Nixon? I KNOW we can match that. Pie + Williams + Welly/other of the million minor league arms we have. that trade was killed because philly wasn't getting enough.
  17. ltb
    Marlins re-signed infielder Lenny Harris to a minor league contract and invited him to spring training. hahahahahahaha
  18. ltb
    more like the "4" :(
  19. ltb
    ewwwwwwwww

    Milwaukee wants to start Hall at 3B - rumor has it that they'll flip Hillenbrand elsewhere. If not, Hall might be available - he'd be a real nice pickup.

    i love jim bowden
  22. ltb
    done
  23. ltb
    better news: it's less than 10 days. he was DFA'd when we added Howry :)
  24. ltb
    wow, that is an amazing trade for the rangers.
  25. ltb
    the last rumor was Wilkerson + Luis Ayala, Collin Balester or Kory Casto - don't know if Bowden finally let one of those three go.
