  1. Biggest loss = Having to rename "camp Colvin." Biggest gain = Alex Gordon part deux! (lets hope)
  2. Any interest as a back end starter? Castillo (or clevenger) and Barney?
  3. I trust Theo/Jed but man I just wanted something of decent relevance to happen during these meetings. Anyone else thinking we will wake up to a surprise tomorrow?
  4. Epstein is on intentional talk on MLB network shortly.
  5. Twitters rumors stating the Padre's may want cubs to take on Hudsons contract.... If it means giving up little for Headley I am all for it. Use Hudson as 2B/3B backup or eat some contract and spin him off in a different deal.
  6. Good catch forgot about Ianetta.
  7. Congrats Ronny! RIP too bad he could not be around to see it!
  8. Any chance of Ervin Santana and Hank Conger for Soto and Marmol? Angels are apparently willing to move Ervin.
  9. prediction: Cubs acquire Headley for Dolis, Vitters, and low level prospect, cubs trade Marmol to Boston for Lowrie, Reddick, and low level prospect. Cubs send Soriano and 36 mil to A's for mid level minor league pitcher. Cubs sign Soler for 5/20. Cubs sign Kuroda for 2 yrs 28 mil, option for a 3rd yr. Cubs linked to Fielder heavily and will sign him a week following meetings. Zambrano and cash to marlins for coghlan and minor keaguer. Byrd, marwin gonzalez to nats for lannan. Garza stays DeJesus RF Castro SS Fielder 1B Soto C Headley 3B Reddick LF Lowrie 2B Jackson CF Garza kuroda dempster lannan wells smardz wood marshall cash
  10. http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chicago/chat/_/id/41354 Interesting tid bits for a lot of the cubs targets.
  11. Levine stated last week that McLeod was down there already and that Theo and Jed were coming in to see him on Monday and Tuesday. I'm starting to get the feeling we will be signing atleast one cuban free agent.
  12. Has to be a pretty steep price. Go for it Reds.
  13. this writer is trying to say the cubs would give up soto plus a prospect....... No
  14. I know it is Rogers speculation but what kind of return does Marmol have? Could he net Arencibia from the Jays giving the Cubs a chance to flip Soto in a package for a Gio Gonzales/Danks/Cahill type pitcher? What teams may be interested and what is he worth? If he returns to form he is well worth the contract versus other closers out there.
  15. I am officially on the Maddux bandwagon.
  16. Acquire one of the following via trade: Gio Gonzalez, Jurrjens, Wade Davis, Danks or some mid/top tier pitcher.
  17. I would start with Byrd and see whatelse they ask for, IF Sori gets moved i think it would have to be an AL team that is willing to take the chance.
  18. Toronto checked on Garza's availability... Crazy 3 team trade idea? TOR Gets: Garza OAK Gets: Soto, McNutt, Vitters CHI Gets: Cahil, Lowrie, Arencibia
  19. I would love to get Gio in the rotation. I think Szczur, Lake and McNutt/Cashner would do the trick. Would definitely kick tires on Cahill.
  20. I would have interest in either one, could a package including McNutt and Szczur be a sarting point to land both of them? Prado could play 3B or 2B correct?
  21. One who goes through hot and cold streaks apparently? I believe that is every hitter.
  22. That was my conclusion... Cubs can get out from under ~$5M. I was more thinking teams would consider taking on probably a 3rd of the salary or close to 7 million to give anything up. I think the Cubs could get more than a B/C level prospect if they eat that amount but I think it just points out that keeping Z is best for this team.
