  1. I'm going away for a week. I'll probably pick a name today and PM Tim.
  2. Another "why?" move. Apparantly the Nats forgot about the first 2 years of the original 4 year deal they gave him: EDIT: He's making $16 mil over the 2 years. Wow....
  3. Wow, Bonafico? The Cubs could have gotten in on this. Seriously. If Bonafico got it done, Cedeno could've gotten us twice as much.
  4. This struck me a little odd. The D-backs have a fairly decent pen don't they? I thought if Rauch got traded, he'd go somewhere like one of the two NY teams.
  5. I saw this on the ticker and I still ahve no clue why this trade was made. I'm just thankful the Cubs aren't on the receiving end of Randy Wolf.
  6. Good to hear. I had horrible visions of use losing draft picks or something. But with the way our prospects usually turn out, maybe that wouldn't be a bad thing.
  7. Or maybe Goony 2?Makes me sound like a bad horror sequal.
  8. http://www.rotoworld.com/content/features/column.aspx?sport=MLB&columnid=2&articleid=30730 Cubs on the list: Vitters, Ceda, Veal, Colvin
  9. I can't see how the Pirates would be will to trade Wilson and Bay (McLouth is untouchable) without getting a ton of top prospects plus Cedeno. The Dodgers have been reluctant to pull the trigger on other deals, so I don't know if they would be willing to toss in some top pitching prospects. I would think it would be something like: Dodgers get Wilson (From Pirates) and ???? (from Cubs) Pirates get Marshall & Cedeno (from Cubs) and Kemp (from LA) Cubs get Bay (from Pirates) and Hu (from LA) Also, we get into the "shifting Fukudome to CF controversy" again. I'd think that "????" from the Cubs would have to be pretty good to warrant the Dodgers giving up Kemp and Hu.
  10. Those are always fun. The first jersey card I got was a korean dude whose name I forgot, but I was in awe at the jersey card, because when I stopped collecting they weren't invented yet, so I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread. Jersey cards are a dime a dozen. I got dozens of them, virtually all commons and not worth any more than $8. The best memorabilia card I had was a Cal Ripken/Derek Jeter dual jersey card. Their cards, separately, are some of the highest valued cards and very sought after. This card was only worth $40. Jersey cards are awesome, but sadly not worth much. That Hafner probably isn't any more than $8 Here's a link to my photobucket (which hasn't been updated in a while) of some cards. If some of you haven't collected in a while and wonder what cards look like nowadays, check it out: http://s225.photobucket.com/albums/dd228/tkenm356/ Yeah, my best pull is a Nolan Ryan autographed/game-used jersey card. At last check it's worth $250 but remove the autograph and it's probably only worth like $10-$20.
  11. So they gave up an average hitter with no pop and a lot of SBs and a dime-a-dozen spot starter.
  12. Keep the ideas rollin'. And I may not stick to the poll and may just pick one I like.
  13. I just recently got back into card collecting. I went through a span of about 2 years without really buying any cards or anything. The other day I went to the store and bought two packs of cards. In one pack I got an autographed rookie card of a catcher in the Braves system (Clint Sammons) and in the other pack I got a game-used jersey card of Travis Hafner. Not bad, IMO. First time I've pulled 2 autographed/memorabilia cards in one day.
  14. So is just Durham going to the Brewers? And who did they give up?
