  1. Floyd makes an attractive option off the bench for protection against one out of the outfielders going down and he can play some first base as well as DH in interleague games. If we can sign him for the bench along with Phil Nevin I would be happy. Also from what I remember Floyd had a pretty good arm out there in the outfield.
  2. I want to read tommorrow where still in the Mix for another big bat and still in the Schmidt sweepstakes.
  3. The weed. He didn't miss it yet just join the circle , remember puff puff pass . 8)
  4. No one wants Lee for CF. I am going under the assumption with what Lou said is that currently Soraino is our right fielder but that can change. Gammons mentions in his article the Cubs don't what spot in the outfield Soranio will play yet.
  5. I have heard that Dave Roberts is seeking a three year deal.
  6. I think because Manny only has two years left on his deal it won't be a straight dump, I wonder if the Cubs would be interested in getting back Matt Clement? With all the money the second tier guy are going to get maybe bringing back Matt might not be a bad idea if it lessen the players we would have to send to Boston. I had heard Rumors that Clement doesn't want to reutrn to the nationial league because running the bases was bad for his Asma?
  7. I hope he's open to a bench job. Jones getting traded anyday now for a SP. You can buy me a beer when it happens. That leaves Soranio and Murton. I don't know if there's enough money to get Drew signed , I think I might be stretching to get Lee here even though his desire to play here is pretty strong.
  8. I've been saying this for a few days but a Carlos Lee could happen I think he will take a discount and really wants to play for the Cubs and have a chance to stick it to Kenny Williams and stay in the midwest.
  9. Would anyone else rather have Drew and Meche then Zito or Schmidt?
  10. When reports first start to leak about the payroll going up it was around 115-120 which was just short of the luxury tax threshold but now that the threshold has gone up who knows.
  11. The Astros could be landing spots for Lee or Adam Dunn .
  12. SORIANO IS NOT AN EXTREMELY STRONG OFFENSIVE PLAYER Are me and Nilo the only people that understand that last year was an anomaly? Quoting nonsense like 40-40-40 and RBI is bad enough, but the entire point is that he had a career year and he's very likely not going to do that again. On a tangential note, how does everyone think Soriano's approach is going to age? He doesn't have the most compact swing in the world, which could lead to big problems once he loses a tick of bat speed. Tiger won't your numbers also show that he did all that last year in a pitchers park , while also raising his walk rate?
  13. I think the next hat to drop is Hendry getting Westbrook for Jones and LHP.
  14. Says he thinks the Trib dpesn't have a problem handing out these deals because 5 years from now they won't own the Cubs.
  15. mind boggling on the contract
  16. Jones could be traded.
  17. Doesn't see them out of the Schmidt sweepstakes yet.
  18. Sully on WGN radio right now...
  19. I'm interested on how active Hendrys is right now in trying to move Jones.
  20. That's gotta be Lugo because I think Drew is out of their price range now I don't think we know the what the true payroll will be. If the cubs move Ohman and Jones to Cleveland for Westbrook as rumored we could add drew and another free starter like Meche or Lilly.
  21. Piniella and Kaplan seemed to be pointed towards the Cubs are still not done
  22. Piniella sounds really old.
  23. "More in the pipeline"
  24. Piniella is very pleased with the Cubs so far.
