Kujay basically said that already Was I wrong? And that's not quite what I said. Unless he's got a compelling personal reason to stay in Chicago, I just don't know why a guy like him would want to play out the string on this crappy team. Just guessing, but unless he's hurt I'm sure he's thinking he's going to bounce back any day now and put up big numbers the rest of the year. If he does that but he's traded then he's locked in to next year wherever he goes. He'll be making a good chunk of change for 2012 if that's the case, true, but I'm sure he'd rather try for something like a 3-year deal for, say, at least around $9 million per. I know that's by no means a sure thing, but who knows what he's thinking/his agent is telling him? With 3B production down across baseball if he can rebound and have a huge second half it suddenly makes him that much more appealing as FA to a number of teams. That makes sense. Not that it will actually happen, but that he probably thinks it will.
