  1. The most likely reason for Corey Patterson's inability to play baseball well is that he lacks the talent necessary to do so.
  2. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/7777230/After-long-process,-M's-finally-nab-Bedard Rosenthal reporting that Bedard to the Mariners is official.
  3. Is there any realistic chance Demp/Marquis + prospect would net us crisp? If I'm not mistaken, Boston doesn't want him anymore and would readily move him in a trade. Marquis/ Dempster and mid level prospect might do it. They may still demand more, but seeing as how they have a hole in their rotation, they could be desparate. They don't really have "a hole in their rotation", at least not one that Dempster or Marquis would meaningfully fill. Beckett - Daisuke - Buchholz - Lester - Wakefield
  4. Much like the roommate switch, this can only be accomplished by knowing George Costanza and having access to his dementia.
  5. (Chances of Hendry trading Marmol for Roberts < Chances of Hendry trading Pie for Roberts) ~ 0
  6. Overall, it's very unlikely that he'll ever qualify as "good". He may be good enough for the Cubs to win the World Series, but that shouldn't preclude them from trying to get a better shortstop. If he's a full-time starter for the next five seasons, there's a fair chance that in one or two of those seasons, he's going to hit in especially good luck, have an elevated BABIP, and post some pretty decent numbers. Nevertheless, his is a spot where we should be actively seeking to improve.
  7. I can't believe the Cubs employed that pud puller for more than ten years.
  8. Nady has 356 career innings in CF. I had hoped you would have known that.
  9. Three way? Nady to Cubs, Murton to Padres, prospects to Pirates.
  10. Eli should quit worrying about MLB rumors and focus on quarterbacking the Giants.
  11. Let's trade for Greene then bat him leadoff. That'll drive wrigley23 nuts.
  12. Unless Petrick's shoulder is hanging on by a thread, I'd rather trade Murton.
  13. http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2008/01/wuertz-cubs-agr.html

  15. Actor. Played The Lone Ranger on TV.
  16. I think that's probably right. I'm thinking that Murton goes to Texas for Byrd and a pitching prospect.
  17. You'd have to balance what you gave up against a year of Nathan and two high draft choices. Of course, Hendry wouldn't be smart enough to let Nathan walk. He'd give him some record-breaking extension.
  18. Regardless of what you think of Mark Pawelek, if Matt Craig were in another organization, would you trade Pawelek for him? Unless Pawelek was a dope supplier, I don't think so.
  19. Isn't it more about the need for catchers? Is Samardzija not on this list because he's on the 40-man roster, or because he's not going to be in major league camp? The former.
  20. He may not be ready by that time, but Jody Davis is a genuine MLB manager prospect.
