I wonder if it could be someone else other than burrell that the cubs are talking to the rays about. They were considering declining Akinori Iwamura's option for next year because of their middle infield depth. If the cubs could get him for bradley + $, I think that could be beneficial for the cubs. Iwamura has a pretty good OBP and a good fielder, although he strikes out alot and doesnt hit for much power. Plus, it could give Kosuke someone to talk to.
