I propose that all subsequent free agent meetings should take place in Joe Maddon's RV in Pensacola, FL.

You seriously don't remember Jim Hendry trying to collect an entire roster full of 2b being a thing we joked about? I do remember this being a thing, I just don't recall specifically who Hendry flipped for Freddie Bynum.

A reader comment Re: La Stella from last years BA AFL Notebook:
-
La Stella, not Brett.
-
To be fair, his name does mean "star".

Russell Martin

Welington Castillo would be a new catcher to any pitcher the cubs sign. -
Oops. Not sure how I failed to notice that.
-
Wittenmeyer claims cubs look like "even stronger favorites" to sign Martin. Doesn't offer an update Re: the imminent Zimmerman trade.
-
We're still talking about Kershaw, right?
-
That would explain why he's hanging out at Phi Alpha Delta house.
-
I had no idea that time-traveling 19 year-old Chris Matthews was an associate of Kershaw Inc.

Jordan Zimmermann?

alcantara and castro for zimmerman and harper. And with that, I have departed the realm of possibility... -
An invitation to speculate: What would it take to get Stanton? Baez + what? B2B, feel free to include as many teams as you want.

Rox get the 15th overall pick, and don't have to pay Cuddyer? I think he loves Colorado. They get a sandwich pick. The 15th pick just disappears. Ahh yeah. Forgot. Thanks.

how would you like to see your rival lose a game?
MWV replied to biittner77's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I do not want to have another season where the Cardinals are the consensus best team in baseball. Yeah, I'd prefer 2004 happen to them, of anything. -

Additionally, looking at Hellickson's 2012 pitch data, it would seem that Joe had a point. link
-
With the caveat that I am not Joe Maddon's biographer, the only thing I could find was this, in which Maddon makes the case that Jeremy Hellickson (2012) should stick with his FB-CH-CB combo rather than trying to incorporate a cutter. Also, Kap and Haugh.

But seriously, folks, this guy right here is the best.

You should try being outpatient, it's a lot cheaper. Zing!
