  1. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2015/12/19/levine-theo-epstein-putting-stock-in-jorge-solers-future/
  2. If the Cubs are really looking to trade Soler.....
  3. I said it about Fernandez recentely but Archer is another of the few arms I'll readily give up Soler to get.
  4. Did Papelbon lose his no trade rights after waiving them to be dealt this summer for the remainder of his deal or was it just for that trade only?
  5. Henderson Alvarez Cliff Lee Matt Latos Doug FIster my wish one year lottery tickets this offseason.
  6. http://chicago.suntimes.com/baseball/7/71/1158534/cubs-still-questions-hope-answer-winter-meetings Gordon is quickly cementing himself as my favorite Cubs beat reporter.
  7. Heyward 18 Price 18 Shark 15 Backload all the deals you have the Cubs adding new revenue streams every year, TV deal, and Jackson $$$ coming off the books. Give Heyward the opt out. Trade Hammel/Wood/Coghlan for bullpen pieces or minor leaguers.
  8. I'm gonna predict Rich Hill signs with the Cubs this week. Reports on he's close to a deal with a team for 1 year 5M deal. Theo signed Hill in Boston , and Jared Porter saw a lot of Hill last year. Could be a strong potential swing arm next season.
  9. Fernandez is probably the only guy I don't think too long about before including Soler in a deal / Wouldn't give up Baez in the same deal though.
  10. http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2014-04-04/business/chi-chicago-cubs-consider-sale-of-minority-stakes-20140403_1_tom-ricketts-minority-investors-ricketts-family SOME of the names that have spoken with the Cubs as of the 2014 summer. I worked closely with one of them that entire summer. They are using the Mets deal with Bill Maher as a template. Billy Murray, Billy Corgan, Pritzker family, John Cusack, Eddie Vedder, Wirtz Family to name a few.
  11. The Cubs have been trying to line up selling off a silent stake in the franchise to a group of celeb investors. This would allow them to operate free of the debt structure they are currently limited by. Getting this done before Hot Stove season begins would really open up the Cubs options for spending this offseason.
  12. 32.00 dollar megambus - 8 hours ride from NYC. 43.00 dollar airbnb 85.00 dollar - 20 dollars stubhub rewards. Cost me a third of what a ticket would have been at Wrigley alone.
  13. Anyone going to PNC and in SRO? I've got a group of 3 going to bring my W Flag. Thinking of blocking off a section against that Rotunda railing.
  14. This is the urinal directly behind the dugout to use during the game/between innings. I have used it while on a tour! :good:
  15. Just heard it on XM no linky.
  16. In 08 Tom Gorzelanny had shoulder, back and finger problems. Might have something to do with him tanking . Just a hunch.
  17. Losing Johnson will hurt those totals for the Giants , Tim how long is the current streak?
  18. Yahoo sports writer speculates the cubs , mariners , giants are in on sanchez.
  19. Yahoo sports writer speculates the cubs , mariners , giants are in on sanchez.
  20. Sndyer/Ross/olivo /Zaun/ Are hopefully on the CUbs radar.
  21. According to the herald and Lou's pregame comments the Cubs will be brining in another Catcher. Any ideas ? Barrett?
  22. Reyes,Wright,Sheffield,Delgado,Beltran,Castillo, Church, could score a ton of runs if they manage to stay healthy.
  23. I really hope Gaudin's back comes up lame. He is a solid young starter/swingman to sell low on. Patton has been been filthy this spring as well as last season in the minors. It would be a shame to lose either of these two only to watch Guzman get hurt three weeks into the season.
