I'm demanding Heyward in any deal w/the Braves involving Harden.

If worse comes to worse (hope not), these players better be available: Harden: Could get a very good prospect in return if he starts pitching like he should. Team like the Angels/Red Sox/Braves would want him. Dempster: Ditto^^. Lee: I'm sure if there was a very good team wanting him who has a legit shot of making a run would want him. Lilly: Some team will need a quality pitcher. Braves make sense. I'm thinking that this is just a slump and we will be fine, but this is now 8 games, and it's horrible. The line-up leaves much to be excited about, and Lou looks like he doesnt give a f***.

We could have a very bright young infield in the future with Vitters at 3rd, the dazzling Castro at SS, and Thomas at 2nd. They all are very good hitters. I know Vitters gets a ton of hype, and I believe someone (Goldstein?) compared him to Joe Mauer with power, but who is Castro comparable to, and who is Thomas comparable to?

If we can't get Peavy, then Hendry better do something. Im talking about signing Furcal AND Bradley + Randy Johnson.

I believe it dexter. I'd imagine we'd sign Furcal and trade Greene though. Somewhere we'd need a LH'er. But adding Dye would be sweet. He' still good. And talk about blockbuster. That's a HUGE deal.

Maybe he will...remember, he posts late at night. Raisin, was that you that he gave the info too? Yes it was.

Donnie, I really want to believe you man. What did your sources tell you then?

This is why you don't believe crap like DonnieD posted. I can't believe some of us believed him.

No, I didn't ask again as I really wasn't in a position to. We really just had a 15 second conversation today, hopefully I will get a chance to get more in depth tomorrow. Donnie, no offense, but colour me cyncial. You may very well be telling the truth, and I want to believe you, but the inner Cub fan in me tells me not to without proof. So I hope you are no offended by this. I will say this: if you and your source is correct and it happens I will glady eat crow. Well, stranger things have happened. I remember we had a random poster swear to us that Zambrano had just been extended and everyone wrote him off (and I think the thread might have been locked), and it ended up happening the next morning. I just don't want to get my hopes up and get them crushed when/if it doesn't happen. Same here..

If we get Peavy... Is he our opening day starter?

I'm watching Peavy highlights on MLB.COM and he's absolutely filthy..

Thanks DonnieD. I'll stop guessing. Just keep us updated man. Peavy Z Harden Dempster Lilly \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

This stuff is just way too exciting ](*,) Hopefully if your source is a Cub and stays with the Cubs, you could give us more info?

Absolutely, I'll provide validation for all of my claims, including pictures if necessary. Do you have any clue when this will go down? And your source must be Demp.

Unfortunately we'll have to settle for Olsen, who could be good. Maybe he could be motivated as he's a die-hard Cubs fan apparently.
