    Quote from Kenney: "Jim Hendry has a well-constructed plan in place and is already working to strengthen our roster for 2008." :pig:

    Justice is on the radio still "reporting" that the Astros are going to sign Matsui. It doesn't seem that he has any information beyond the Ringolsby blurb, though.

    Houston Chronicle reporter Richard Justice can be heard at the following link today (and every day) at 10:00 a.m. http://1560thegame.com/ That may be a good opportunity to get an update on Kaz Matsui.

    Sammich City!

    I don't mean to hurt your feelings, but this is possibly the most unrealistic trade proposal ever mentioned on this site. Or any other site, for that matter.
  6. JeffH
    Actually, either one could work.
  7. JeffH
    The tedium of the resulting discussion would cause a split in the time-space continuum, ending all life in the universe.

    Almost certainly ahead of Veal, probably behind Samardzija. Ahead of both, actually. Good for him!

    Looks like Minaya may have saved Punch Drunk from himself, at least temporarily. C'mon, O'Dowd or Wade!

    Zero chance. You're forgetting about the no-trade clause Hendry will give him.
  12. JeffH
    While I find myself oddly enjoying this rather ridiculous discussion, it does reinforce the fact that we desperately need some hot stove news.

    This stat doesn't mean what you seem to think it means. He is 72nd all-time in unadjusted slugging percentage, though.

    On Sports Central tonight, Kaplan reiterated that the Cubs are speaking with Matsui's people, but that they are not close to finalizing a deal.

    In other news, Juan Pierre is the same player as Alfonso Soriano (w/ exception of power).
  16. JeffH
    Greene, 2005-2007: Home: .227/.273/.389/.662 Road: .273/.328/.500/.828 He's worth putting together a pretty nice package.

    Actually, it's probably a good idea that Hendry didn't pursue ARod. I imagine ARod could play any position on the diamond other than in the battery and be pretty good. Cubs sign ARod to 15 year, $500 million contract "Obviously, we were really taken by Alex's versatility," said Cubs GM Jim Hendry. "We feel like he can get 500 at-bats bouncing all over the field - filling in for Theriot, playing some in the outfield, spelling Lee and Ramirez, and, obviously, he'll be a great option at DH for Lou during interleague games in American League parks."
  18. JeffH
    How does he lose DeRosa? DeRosa is a "super sub", taking valuable plate appearances away from Lee and Ramirez.
  19. JeffH
    My prediction for the offseason: Hendry signs free agent Kaz Matsui ($14/3) with the intention of helping to lure free agent Kosuke Fukudome. Kosuke decides to remain in Japan, citing loyalty to his nation. Hendry signs free agent Geoff Jenkins ($20/3). Hendry trades Jason Marquis to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Juan Pierre with the intention of subsequently trading Felix Pie to the San Diego Padres in a deal for Khalil Greene. Padres GM Kevin Towers gets cold feet and backs out of the Pie-Greene deal. Your 2008 Chicago Cubs: LF - Soriano CF - Pierre RF - Jenkins/Murton 3B - Ramirez SS - Theriot 2B - Matsui 1B - Lee C - Soto

    Nope. Kap is well connected.
  21. JeffH
    Does he have a thought process? Step one: Determine the worst possible transaction. Step two: Execute said transaction.
  22. JeffH
    I polished that up for you, abuck.
  23. JeffH
    What type FA is he? B If he's signed before the arb deadline, we'll get a sammich.
  24. JeffH
    Matsui had a .342 OBP last season / .304 away from Coors Field. Soriano had a .337 OBP last season. Excellent idea! Let's give one of MLB's worst hitters lots of plate appearances and one of our best hitters fewer. Brilliant!

    Punch Drunk: "Hey, Kohs-kay! Guess who I just signed?" Kosuke: "Who?" Punch Drunk: "Kazuo Matsui." Kosuke: "That SOB? That rat bastard slept with my wife! Screw this - I'm staying in Japan." Punch Drunk: "D'oh!"
