Jason Schmidt
baseball7897 replied to RationalSoxFan's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
If I were the Giants and there was not a good chance of re-signing Schimdt then I would do this deal in a heart beat. -
One thing I noticed about Weaver is he throws across his body. As a pitcher this feels more natural for you but as a result it can cause shoulder problems in the future. A good example of this is Kerry Wood.
-
This is a serious injury for Wood and his future.
-
Corey Hart or Jose Capellan would be at the top of my list for Maddux.
-
Why would the cubs want a guy who cannot hit his weight? Plus they have Pie in AAA
-
Carlos Lee and Barry Zito
-
Hawk is the biggest excuse makin' whinny arrogant person I have ever heard in broadcasting. agreed
-
If the Cubs were stealing signs, it did them a heck of a lot of good in that inning. Did Hawk say that?
-
Sox could be 2 1/2 out after today. Keep winning Cubs and Tigers
-
I'm amazed that Cubs are only 14.5 games out
-
well in other news Royals winning 1-0
-
Nice throw Murton

Jered up, Jeff DFA'd!!!

Jeff Weaver would not be that bad of a pickup for the Cubs. He pitches alot of innings and will make his starts every year. He reminds me of a Matt Clement. -
I hope Lou does not become the next manager. He might be worse than Baker
-
Nevin had a pitch to hit there
-
I might make a bid in the last minutes
-
how about they score 3 here to take the lead
-
I never understood how someone can be a whitesox fan and a cubs fan
-
I might have some interest in these tickets. Any chance i could just buy 3 tickets?

2007 Rotation
baseball7897 replied to WrigleyField 22's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
The 07 FA market for SP is not to strong. Zito, Schmidt and Mulder are the top pitchers on the market and will probably get 11-13 million a year. Marquis is another guy who could be in that money range if he could pitch better. Guys like Jeff Weaver and Vicente Padilla could be cheap. I wouldnt mind the cubs taking a gamble on either of those 2. Maybe if Miller can show he is worthy for a 1 yr deal the cubs could give him a shot in the rotation next year. That could mean maybe giving Wood the closer role next year. He has 3 dominating pitches and looked confident in the bullpen role last year. -
2007 Rotation
baseball7897 replied to WrigleyField 22's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
07 Rotation: 1. Zambrano 2. Zito 3. Prior 4. Wood 5. Marshall If the Cubs sign Zito they could take a gamble on Wood for another year. -
Might have a Garnett deal in place

Juan Pierre extension watch

What are the options on the FA market for a CF? Maybe the Cubs could strike a deal for a guy like Figgins? -
Lee or Dunn?
baseball7897 replied to Backtobanks's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
It's Carlos Lee not DLee. My bad. I thought they were talking about D-lee. -
Lee or Dunn?
baseball7897 replied to Backtobanks's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
The choice is a simple one for me. I would rather have D-Lee than Dunn. Lee brings so much more to a team. He runs, he hits for average, plays the best 1b in the league, hits for power and he is a leader.
