  1. does "and" mean hendry would want both? there's no way they could afford drew and soriano... Best. News. Yet. (Cubs optimism) (Cubs pessimism: "Hendry pursuing Furcal AND Pierre...")
  2. Very down year in 2005, broke his foot on in the opening game of 2006. His injury affected his play and he ended up having surgery after a bit of playing. Jeez that's awful. Where do you think he'll start next year? AA? Just checked his stats, holy shazbot, 39 homers in A ball?!?! And at age 20 as well....
  3. Whatever happened to Dope? I remember him and Harvey were supposed to be our next "big boppers".
  4. Good lord me too. It's hell on my schoolwork, especially with the ginormous essay I have due tomorrow. :?

  6. Good point. I wonder if this means a trade is imminent...although the Jays have spent quite a lot the last couple years on free agents in an effort to make the AL East more competitive.
  7. Hah! Seven minutes too slow! viewtopic.php?t=36680
  8. Harvey is still on the list? Also, that list is mighty small, although I guess they can't count Guzman, Mateo, or Marmol since they've played too much at the MLB level? Anyone back me up on this?
  9. According to ESPN, the Jays are closing in on a two-year deal with Thomas. I thought for sure he'd be back with the A's....
  10. No kidding, that was strange. But at least AAardvaark is awesome.
  11. Seems to be a common thread for Hendry. Although reports are today he was facing competition from other teams, he wasn't bidding alone.
  12. Hendry, Hendry...... [-( Why build up expectations of signing Soriano when you and I both know that the Cubs won't? I'm resigned to the fact that we won't get Soriano, I'm over it. Why delay that with other people? Why give them hope? I just hope he trades Izturis or Jones, and keeps Murton. IMO, that's a victory if we got market value for either Jones or Izturis.
  13. I think it's about time, and really just a matter of figuring out how to make sure there's not 3 instant replays every inning.
  14. Yup. As long as he's not on the North Side next year I don't care where he goes. Amen. Let the crazy market work in our favor for once and carry him far away.
  15. Get Cesar the EFF outta here. I don't care how or why.
  16. That doesn't sound like someone that's going to trade Izturis to me. I'm a Cubs fan, I have the right be to be have my hopeful delusions.
  17. Well at least Hendry is moving fast....?
  18. Fixed. Seriously, I like brining Blanco back....but that's just a little too pricey man....jeeez....
  19. YAYYY!!! Pat Hughes is terrific. I love both him and Ronny. :o :o
  20. Yeah, that's what I was cryptically referring to. :P If you take out his sophomore slump month of June, his year is actually really incredible. (BA .311)
  21. Somewhat surprising, but comforting, as I'd rather have Big Murt out-produce him for the league minimum again.
