If we had a GM who didn't have such a limited mind who also keeps the wrong guys. . Play Pie Replace Jones with someone much better via a trade Play Theroit at SS Sign Soriano or another 2B with very good slugging and some HR power. However we have JH, so Izturis will be paid $5 mil to play at SS that is if he doesn't get injured again. Theroit will play 2B, Pierre will be resigned at $8 mil for 3 years, Jones will remain at RF. He won't even trade Pie to get a huge superstar even though we have Pierre for 3 years. . We'll be lucky to get one stud SP and JH will just go with that. As if that's any type of off-season. .

My preference. Baker let go Aramis extended Wood resinged Miller signed Major FA Major Trade Trib sells cubs New management fires hendry and MacPhail New management hires good GM and president New management ups payroll to $150 mil and insists GM takes advantage New GM makes another Major sign New GM makes a # of significant minor and major trades taking advantage of new salary able to offer teams significant "salary releif" in exchange for only some minor players from the Cubs farm system. Cubs kick ass. :wink: :lol:

Choi for Lee didn't work out too badly. Lee wasn't ours to begin with. If we want to trade with Florida. Target Cabrera or nothing. . I just don't like the taste of giving up mitre, nolasco, pinto, and probably Pie and 2 more top pitching prospects. For Willis (since pierre was only a 1 year rental and a bad one at that). ., when the man was OURS to begin with.
-
The only thing he would do that Dusty doesn't is see things from the dugout and march out to the umpire to chew him out and step on his own hat.
-
No more trades with florida plz. Trades w/fl is how they got our Dontrelle to begin with. I might consider loosing more prospects if he wasn't ours to begin with.

What will next years payroll be?
A New Era replied to Neuby's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
What will it be? $90 million. What SHOULD it be? $120 million. -
Amen I agree.
-
What made you beleive that? That simply is not true. God does not "give" anything, he does not intervene in that way. God didn't give Jada a disease. She was born with it.

Possibility? Brenly manager, Stone in the booth, Baker ESPN?
A New Era replied to Banedon's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
"Dusty what did you think about that pitch!" "What? Uh, oh I didn't see it from where I'm sitting." -
I'll take the crap. I'm not sure, but it probably tastes better. .

Exciting, enticing, envigorating. . .

Buy low on Adam Dunn?
A New Era replied to Mephistopheles's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
I'd be all for it. Too bad position wise we couldn't easily replace Jones with Dunn and not Murton. But oh well. It'd be an upgrade either way. But I'd keep Murton as the 4th OF for sure. -
He accepts full responsibility? When has baker accepted responsibility for anything? Maybe he can pass his lies off to casual couch fans but us real fans can see through that bull*#@#. And it's not his fault? Entirely? No. Partially? Hell yes.
-
So you'd prefer to think that she has no integrity to just plain not knowing much about baseball? Either way she's bad right? I honestly think she just beleives that stuff others in the orginazation feed her. I was just putting other options to hate her, out there. . :wink:
-
Did anyone ever think she is PAID to give the company line, whether she beleives it or not? . . . . . . . . . NAH!! She's just stupid. And you are supposed to refer to her as Muskat. There are never any acceptions on this.

That was just something a (unskillfully) put together cutting out ubergoobers great photoshop of todd walker. I'd probably get rid of it once dusty is gone. I'm thinking of putting a confetti or something resembling a party during the offseason once dusty is gone. Thanks for caring so much about my avatar. :)

IBTL!!

While I would not want Frank Robinson to have anything to do with the Cubs organization, this would not have anything to do with why. There's no crying! There's no crying in baseball! http://i.rollingstone.com/assets/rs/95/72865/images/00099308.jpg So by that rationale, you wouldn't want Jim Leyland either? Or Joe Torre? Nope. Scratch Dick Vermeil off this list too. How about sounding all depressed in interviews? Because we could gladly scratch Dusty off too if we included that!

I'd call his 2003 great, without question. Not down in history great, but great nonetheless. As great as Zambrano last year. zambrano wasnt great last year either imo. we must have a different opinion on what "great" means. i look at some of the years pedro, maddux, clemens, johnson & sanatana have had and woods 2003 just looks like a very average year that a good pitcher would have. not a great year by any stretch imo. So by your definition, there's about 1 great pitcher per year. i wouldn't say only one but most years have a few guys who have great years. i just dont consider a 3.20 era and 14 wins a great year. Why are you listing win totals? This is a silly arguement. You guys are arguing about ONE (nsbb member) person's view on the word "great". It's a complete waste of time. Now let's talk about Wood! Wood's great, yay!!

It's being put on hold because the stockholders voted to stall it. So they can each buy an extra ferrari as a christmas gift to themselves.
-
I could too - especially if we could sign another big outfield bat and then platoon him with Murt. Or has been suggested I would prefer to see him rather than Pierre in CF next year. I'd rather get a big or above average bat for CF and just leave Murtt alone. Murt should not be platoon with anybody. He should start most of the days of the year in LF. He has earned that. Plus I have a good feeling about him, he's gonna produce.

Hopefully Wood really means what he says about the cubs and the fans. And he takes a (really) low base as to make it safe for the off-season (IE other moves needed).
