Beasley moves from Glasgow Rangers to Hannover 96, where he joins Cherundolo.
-
Mascherano to Barca for 23 million euro is a done deal (pending a physical, of course) He signed a four year contract with them.
-
The Cubs have signed 16yr old Italian catcher Alberto Mineo at MLB's European Baseball Academy. Link http://bora.la/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/alberto-mineo1.jpg Pic of the new guy.

Nice 2-3 away win for Bruges to advance to the group stages of the Europa league. :yahoo:
-
This thread seems to have jinxed the Cubs. 8-)
-
Bears sign Todd Collins. Comments?
-
It's probably no coincidence Hill played in Lou's final game.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 8-22-10
wvcbxl replied to Outshined_One's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Let's see what the big prize in the Lee deal can do. -
Or better still (slow-mo replay of chair flying at 2:00 approx)
-
Nice positioning by him (and dreadful marking too)
-
BBC reports Gallas to sign with Spurs I guess the Frenchman likes London. :wink:

Fuld up instead of Hoffpauir
wvcbxl replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Fuld is on the 40 man roster, Snyder and Lahair aren't. (Adduci was also an option because of this) Shouldn't matter though, since there's only 39 on there at the moment (Guzman being on the 60 day DL) -
Yeah, pretty much. If an OF has to be moved to 1B, Colvin seems the obvious choice to me. Soriano flat out saying he wouldn't do it may be a tad unprofessional, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter. It was probably the way the question was phrased. The correct or honest answer was that he couldn't play 1b adequately.
-
And he has the same reaction as most people: "I've never heard of these guys so they can't be serious prospects" From what I've read, the return seems to be about as good (if not better) as could be expected.
-
He's also a Belgian international who's had a bad year at AZ - I hope he can rebound in the EPL
-
Wouldn't that be true regardless of this possible trade? Or would Lee have returned on a short-term (cheap) deal?
-
Interesting indeed. If this happens, 1B will be brutal for the remainder of the Cubs season though.

Sometimes you meet people from way back in unexpected places, as is obvious by Mourinho's look when Sergio Conceicao (now assistant coach with Standard Liège) says hello prior to yesterday's warm-up game. http://www.sporza.be/polopoly_fs/1.846373!image/2389702551.jpg_gen/derivatives/landscape470/2389702551.jpg

Because a couple didn't sign? Isn't that to be expected? DeJesus is a bummer because of what round he was picked, but other than him I'd say it's about par for the course.
-
:-$
-
Ronald Koeman or Bradley?
-
Not really. It's not your fault you never look beyond the USA in the medals table, or that the calculations to convert relative to population size can be too complicated. We are actually quite tolerant about intellectual laziness. 8-)

Fontenot to Giants
wvcbxl replied to CubsInNC's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
I wish him all the best, but why does adding Fontenot make sense for the Giants? -
Trying all of those out on Londoners could be fun. 8-)

Local reports say Kljestan came on as a sub. How did he look?
