    You mean right now? You need to stop getting so excited or every report that says it's close and then getting all bummed out any time someone says it might not be. Ther'es nothing really knew from Stark there. Like someone else said, it sounds like more opinion than anything else. Plus he's been pumping the "Cubs are standing firm" POV for a few days now. His source could easily be somebody from the Cubs who is putting that out there on purpose.

    he was joking. you need to relax.

    yes he has averaged only 33+ starts and 208 innings the past 7 seasons, that certainly screams "injury risk" to me i think he was implying that he'll become injury prone because he's going to the yankees

    Seriously, any of us could have answered those questioned just as well as Garfien.

    i don't really care if he's a douchebag to people outside of the clubhouse. by all acounts he's become a very good teammate and a good clubhouse guy.

    I also think Bradley's attitude would be good for this team. We need a cocky a-hole to bring some a-holish swagger to this team. Zambrano isn't really an a-hole, he just has anger issues and is really intense. Bradley can really rally a team and give them an edge they've really been missing over the past couple years. That, or it could be a disaster.

    I think we should expect more of a high .800s OPS I'm not as thrilled about bradley as I was now that it looks like DeRosa is on his way out

    By the way, apparently some radio station is reporting that the O's offered him 9/180 and the Nats topped it by offering 10/200. Who knows if that's true or not

    Oh my god, I would absolutely love that. Orioles fans would be absolutely crushed. How awesome.

    I can't wait until they give him 5/80 so his yearly IP totals look like this 123.2 111.1 141 125.2 223

    I agree, but I don't think Lou thinks that way. I remember during the season people got annoyed at the way he'd stack the lineup with all righties against LHP.

    Do you really think they look at stats that closely? He bats lefty. I like Fontenot, love his plate approach. But is there really a difference between him and DeRosa? It's just handedness. Bradley can bat lefty. BTW, I like Bradley, always have. Well I'd hope that they look that closely at statistics. The whole point (for them) is to add a good lefty. Bradley isn't good as as lefty. I'm not saying I care... I want Bradley and I don't really care about the lefty stuff anyways. It would just surprise me since Lou is so smitten on every available lefty... lefty

    ESPN is now saying 7/160. Yikes.

    bradley is a + half win defender abreu is a - 1.5 win defender in other words, bradley is $9M more valuable than abreu on defense alone and theres a decent offensive advantage for bradley as well Any kind of fielding statistics on Bradley were probably compiled a few years ago when he was healthier and actually played some OF. Plus... you know.... they're fielding statistics

    You do realize that we slapped CC around when we faced him dont you? 2.78 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, 15/3 K/BB against the Cubs last year Didnt we chase him after like 6 innings both times we faced him? Faced him 3 times.. he went 6.2, 7, and 9. Anyways, I think the guy was happy that he's out of the division because it makes the Brewers worse.

    I'd be kind of surprised if they got Bradley, considering Lou's obsession with adding a lefty Bradley career as LHB vs RHP- .270 /.362 /.436 Bradley career as RHB vs LHP- .303 /.387 /.504 I'm not saying I care... but I could imagine Lou and Jim caring since they desire a lefty so badly. Im not sure they're going to choose a guy who is a .798 OPS guy as a lefty

    I asked Churchill what he's been hearing

    So who could the Phillies be interested in if it isn't DeRosa or Marquis?
