So I guess its pretty safe to assume that this move is to get Stevens back up before the 10 day period and in the next day or 2 Shark or Atkins will be sent down for Fuld or Taguchi unless a trade takes place.
According to MLBTR, the Rockies asked about Grabow and Beimal, and both the Pirates and Nats asked for top propsect Eric Young Jr. in return, and I sure hope that Hendry wouldnt give up anything close to that for one of those 2.
i really don't Sam Fuld is worth...anything really. also, that leaves the Cubs without a backup CF If we really want a backup CF, bring up So Taguchi. He cant be any worse than most people project Sam Fuld to be anyway.
From what I hear, the Royals want a CF and the Marlins want bullpen help. Laugh all you want, but I wonder if Sam Fuld is someone we could base a deal for Teahen around. Its not like they're going to land Grady Sizemore for the guy. Offer Sam Fuld+2 prospect/PTBNL.
Regardless of what happens tonight, I think you guys are toast w/o another front line starter. I think theyre toast with anything short of Roy Halladay. Jarod Washburn, Doug Davis, or Jon Garland are not going to fix that mess of a rotation.
