    So no trades today?
  2. Balsa
    PULL THE TRIGGER.

    The Giants have traded setup man LaTroy Hawkins to the Orioles for reliever Steve Kline. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/bbw/2005-12-06-winter-meetings-buzz_x.htm?POE=SPOISVA

    Why do I think we won't get him? :?
  6. Balsa
    LOL. Keep this commentary every day.

    Atlanta can make a pretty attractive package for Lugo. They've probably had it together for weeks. I fully expect the Braves to sign Lugo.

    :lol: :lol: Good luck Mr. Miles.
  9. Balsa
    How funny would it be for the Mets to land Beltran, Pedro, Wagner, Delgado, and then Sammy? :lol: :lol: Good thing he signed last or the previous players would worry about 'the commitment to winning'.
  10. Balsa
    Well Maddux has 19 years with 8 years as a Cub.

    #$%^ing Dodgers..... :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

    I would guess the Leadoff hitter actually 'leads off' more in the NL than in the AL, because the pitcher hits last in the NL, and that's usually a sure out. Add that to the poor hitters being lumped at the bottom, and I could see the leadoff hitter leading off the inning about 2-3 times a game in the NL. That's just a guess though. EDIT: The important thing is that he gets on base in front of our big boppers.

    You know, Hendry's comments about Nomar's finding a better fit somewhere else and Nomar's injuries twice in a row might extinguish that idea. But stranger things have happened.

    Here we go ladies and gentlemen...this is it. Cross your fingers! :pig: :pig: :pig:

    Why did the Dodgers have to get involved? I bet if it weren't for them, we'd be seeing Furcal in a Cubs hat already... :evil: :evil:
  16. Balsa
    YIKES. Makes me hope we get Furcal even more. That trade is just absurd.
  17. Balsa
    I was thinking the same thing. The Hendry Scrap Heap Deal
  18. Balsa
    I'm seeing the Giants as the real threat in the West next year.
  19. Balsa
    I agree, I still think they're after Damon, but trying to lower Boras's outrageous asking price.
  20. Balsa
    Yeah, this is bad. I wouldn't want Hendry to go over 5/50. After that, the Dodgers can keep him.
  21. Balsa
    Wow. We better be getting a @#$% good PTBNL. This is no good. He never even had a chance at the majors.
  22. Balsa
    Well Konerko signed a five year, $60 million contact with $12 a year and a limited no trade clause that means Konerko can choose six team to whom he cannot be traded.
  23. Balsa
    Call me crazy, but I can't see da Farns succeeding in New York.

    They've also never won a World Series since well before WWI. At some point, they have to get over their supposedly responsible stance on contract length and actuallly acquire impact players. They've also never pitched an entire game with firstbasemen. Your response was illogical. There are a number of things the Cubs have never done since they won the World Series. I seriously doubt that not offering 5 year contracts had anything to do with that. Besides, it's only recently that the Cubs have become a big-market team.
