It is my opinion that the off season moves are far from completed. I have no idea what JH still has in mind, but I think this team will look drastically differant then the one we are looking at right now.
I have noticed that the Cubs had about 5/6 pitchers listed on the Mesa roster last summer that never appeared in a game. I wonder if they could be the ones. Alberto Albequerque Carlos Morla Juan Sayago Felin Santana Alvaro Dicio Wilson Inoa (Of)
How can the Cubs be in that bad of shape ? The proposed budget still has about 18-20 mil. to spend. How can we down to the options of Jones or Encarnacion? Something has to happen here. I hope!!
After trading three candidates for the Iowa staff, whats anybodies guess on who will be there? How about? Rich Hill Angel Guzman Bobby Brownlie Carmen Pignietello Jae-Kuk Ryu
Franco would be a good bat off the bench, but I think there is a need for somebody who can more than pne position. Franco, at this point , is only a 1b.
How much money is left to spend after signing Howry, Mabry, Eyre, and trading for Pierre? Should be enough to acquire a decent starting pitcher. I vote for Weaver.
I dont think you can get Burnitz as a 4th Of at 1 mill. From what I have read, he has invested his money wisely and is planning to retire unless someone comes up with a decent offer that appeals to him.
Is this a list of all Rule5 draft eligibles? Bobby Browlie Carmen Piniatello Jon Connally Chadd Blasko Ryan O'Malley Carlos Vasquez Billy Petrick Luke Haggerty Jason Wylie Jake Fox Micah Huffpauir Brandon Sing Matt Craig Buck Coats Dwaine Bacon Who did I miss? I think it is safe to say that Haggerty wont be drafted this year.
