Kaplan has good inside info. When he hints to something there's usually a reason. Like the unforeseen circumstances that Cuban may be indicted, tried and sentenced, thus not allowing him to buy the Cubs and expand payroll? I know it's not relevant. I imagine in order to trade for Peavy and accomplish adding other needs the Cubs may not be able to piece it all together. Or maybe Towers is demanding Samardzilla, and he won't waive his partial no-trade clause - assuming San Diego is on it, which would be really odd. Confirmed by Bruce he has a full no trade clause not a partial. Yahoo writer corrected his story also.
