    I wonder if we can just send Hendry to Tampa. He seems to really like their ball club all of the sudden.

    I got an idea. Lets trade them Lee, marmol, and some other low level chap for Garza. Then, lets trade them Garza for HellBoy.
  3. mookie
    Oh my. That would be a disappointment.
  4. mookie
    Because I don't want to trade anything more than that. I think Garza is a little better, but he is more expensive, so the difference in ability is offset by price. It seems to me this team is intent on adding second tier starting pitching. I don't see the need. One thing I wonder is if the Cubs are trying to prioritize starting pitchers who don't have as much problem with racking up high pitch counts and can go a little deeper into games. Hence the interest in moving Gorzelanny and the interest in Garza. In theory (and depending upon the cost in talent and dollars), it's a good idea and a good way to indirectly improve the bullpen. Of course, they'd be a lot better off if they'd look for a big upgrade at second base. Will the White Sox take Zambrano for Gordon Beckham?

    Not an upgrade over Wells? Interesting. Has anyone here ever watched Garza pitch? :shock:
  6. mookie
    Tampa would never go for it, but it would be an upgrade.

    I agree with you. The guy is a lot like Big Z. He has great stuff, but has a hard time putting it all together. Boy has a big temper as well.
  8. mookie
    So, is this team built to win a five game series yet? :-"
  9. mookie
    HaHaHaHa. Zambrano part deux?
  10. mookie
    Had a feeling he would sign with us since the summer. Oh well, thank christ it is only for one year. Now please pull of the trade with Texas, sign Webb, and lets get ready for some baseball!

    Not according to Davis. Link oooooh. Well, that is promising news. Muchas Gracias.

    Awesome news! I just read on a Rangers board that Chris Davis didn't have good things to say about Rudy prior to his departure from Texas. I love it!
  14. mookie
    Honestly, no. Some dude on MLBtr thinks we are signing Pena to some multi-year deal tonight on top of this trade, which sucks. However, even if Pena doesn't go through we are going to do something else.
  15. mookie
    Honestly, I really doubt it. However, I get the feeling we won't have to wait to much longer to find out.

    Rangers, Cubs Talking Multiplayer Trade By Ben Nicholson-Smith [December 7 at 6:00pm CST] The Rangers and Cubs are discussing a trade that would send Chris Davis and Darren O'Day to Chicago, according to Ed Price of AOLFanHouse (on Twitter). Ed Price was the man last year, right? I am thinking this thing has legs.
  17. mookie
    Davis and Darren O'Day. I really hope this is true! It would be a pretty awesome trade.
  18. mookie
    Judging by the wording, this seems like our man. Yeah! Blah...
  19. mookie
    I can stomach 2 million. However, anything higher will be silly. And we all know it will be higher.
  20. mookie
    I believe the douche was Matt Kemp.
  21. mookie
    Davis, almost without question. Houston just dealt for Wallace last year and won't be ready to trade him for a bag of balls. He's their "answer" at 1B and I'd be shocked if he doesn't get at least one full season as a starter in the majors to prove what he is or isn't for them. I guess they are shifting him to third then? I love our division so far this off season. Theriot and Berkman to the Cards. Kawakami to the pirates. The Brewers made a solid move though.
  22. mookie
    lol...about the same initial response to Chris Davis. Just for fun, who would come cheaper, Davis or Wallace?
  23. mookie
    It is all over twitter right now.
  24. mookie
    Astros moving Carlos Lee to first. Maybe we can pry Brett Wallace away from them?
  25. mookie
    I firmly in the camp of hoping the Nats outbid us for Pena and we outbid the Nats for Webb.
