    Not going to happen. I know, I was just making a point that it would take something like that to make me consider trading Z.
  2. Post Count Padder
    No, don't even have to contemplate it. You don't trade away your only proven SP unless you get a pitcher of the same magnitude in return, in this case we're not. Now, if the Yanks throw in Phillip Hughes or Chien Ming Wang, I might think about it.

    In all seriousness, what would be a realistic proposal in a trade for A-Rod?

    ...and the managerial merry-go-round continues...

    The only positive I see is that bringing a "big name" manager gives me the impression that the Cubs want to win now. I like that mentality. I reserve judgment until I see what kind of off-season we have. If we get a big name pitcher (Zito), and a big bat (C. Lee or Soriano), I like our chances. Time will tell. I thought that Baker was a big name manager and he didn't bring much to the table. My thinking exactly. I think JH is hoping the 2nd time is a charm. I'm not as optimistic, but I'll hold my judgement at least for now. Also: it's now breaking news on ESPN news.

    Let us not forget that A-Ram has stated that it is his first choice to remain in a Cub uniform and wants to play here. That said, I hope JH doesn't screw up, and he and A-Ram get a 4-5 years deal hammered down within the next week or so. It would be one less thing to worry about this offseason.

    I concur.

    Congrats to Russ! To all those minor league experts out there, how does Canzler project and what's his upside?

    I'm pretty sure Leiter calls games for YES, the Yankees TV network.

    I know Neifi is long gone, but it is still funny to see how he is talked about in the media. This gets me thinking that maybe it wasn't just Dusty. Maybe there's something about him that makes mangaers love him :shock: .

    It's unfortunately already been done. In the MLS the NY/NJ Metros became the Red Bulls, named after the drink.
  12. Post Count Padder
    Why are they going to do that? Take a wild guess... http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-whitesox-7-eleven&prov=ap&type=lgns

    Jenkins is a slightly better/ more injury prone version of Jacque Jones, IMO. We can do better.
  14. Post Count Padder
    Think they'd take Izturis for Ryan Garko? :D

    Per Rotoworld: Aramis Ramirez - Third Baseman Oct. 5 - 9:43 am et According to the Chicago Sun-Times, people close to Aramis Ramirez say he wants to see who replaces Dusty Baker as manager of the Cubs before making any decisions on his future. A clause in Ramirez's contract allows him to become a free agent this offseason, and whoever the Cubs bring in to run the show will definitely influence whether A-Ram leaves the team.

    Gah, beat me to it.

    What are you wearing? Mr. Foley, leave me alone. Hahahaha. Nice one Goony and CubinNY. In relation to the thread, it is hard to tell if this is true or not. Granted, we know there's been speculation about the sale of the Cubs, but I don't know how how reputable the source is. Nothing against you, mjuedes, but we here at NSBB have seen our fair share of people lying or giving out misinformation on the board. On a nice note, welcome to the board mjuedes!

    ESPN News has the press conference listed as a program alert. They will air it live at 1 ET/12 CT.

    SHOCKING! But you'd think seniors in high school, who I know are nowhere near as busy as I in many respects, could find the time to type up a three page paper, considering they already had it written. Whatever, I enjoy the free lab-time. EDIT: Irony- complaining about people not finishing a writing assignment properly, in a post filled with errors. I taught seniors my first year. I feel confident saying that they made more excuses in that one year about not completing papers and assignments than all my middle schoolers have in the past five years. As a high scool senior last year, I would have to say, yes, I believe that.

    I think they'll make an initial offer. When that is surpassed by all the other bidding teams, they'll shrug their shoulders, say "we tried" and sign Wade Miller to a 4 year extension.
  21. Post Count Padder
    Son of a %$# :x Dreams of Mark Cuban owning the team crushed.
  22. Post Count Padder
    I wouldn't say insane, but they are pretty darn good. I wonder if he would be able to translate those numbers over here. He pitched pretty well in the WBC didn't he?
  23. Post Count Padder
    Wow, just heard about this in the NSBB live hockey draft. I hope this paves the way for an overhaul this offseason. It would be a nice change of pace to go into a season with a competant president, manager, and GM.
  24. Post Count Padder
    Actually, now that I look at my team, I think I'm ok to start the season, though 2 of my goalies are over the hill and I don't have much in the PIM category.
  25. Post Count Padder
    I assume you mean AL. Well, the Sox blew it, so I guess it was the Tiger's turn.
