I think if they are going after some of these guys there is definitely a significant bump in the payroll. If its a priority to sign Dempster and Wood, or at least one and get Peavy, that leaves the big hole of getting a lefty bat still on the checklist. I don't see Bradley and Furcal, but I definitely think the Cubs offer a contract to Ibanez or Bradley, preferably the latter. It will suck to watch him only play 100 games, but if hes around playoff time it will be forgiven. Either way, it will be nice to see one of those guys in the middle of our order next season.
