Everyone keeps talking about Ben Sheets and CC Sabthias off seasons. More than likely, the Brewers wont even try to compete with the mega deals teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets, and Phillies will be offering these guys, but nobody seems to mention Dempster. If his second half is anything near his first half, I cant imagine him not at least testing free agency. Granted, we have more money than the Brewers, but still a lot of teams will be looking at him. Im sure could afford him, and make a competitive offer, but will we try? Zambrano is inked for quite some time. We'll have Harden, Lilly, and Marquis for at least 1 more year, plus the emerging Marshall, Hill, and maybe Samardzjia, Veal, and Atkins down on the farm. Will the Cubs under the new ownership consider Demp to be worth what some of these other teams might be willing to offer him?
