    I can't respond to all these replies at once, did I stir up the hornets nest with people or what? It's like you're hunters, ready to fire, just WAITING and PRAYING for someone optomistic to come along, so you can destroy them as quickly and as effeciently as possible. Let me ask you this, what have the Cardinals done this offseason?

    Some people like to hurl blanket insults about to make their points. I can't stand it either. Hey, we're only talking about baseball here. It's up to you if you take things personally.

    Who appoints the manager? Exactly, you can't blame Dusty for the way things have gone, without looking at why is there. If Hendry had fired Dusty after the season, I would not have the same feeling I have towards in right now. I'm NOT getting into this argument, but I will say that while Baker was hardly impressive last year - his main problem was just pitching management. Losing Prior and Wood to injuries, and Corey imploding upon himself like the sun - that's what made us lose. He got signed to a three year deal, let him finish it. If we suck this year, can him. Hard to blame him for last year though. Bobby Cox himself couldn't help Hollandsworth either if you noticed.

    You guys can't be serious. Honestly.

    He's become much more outspoken on it lately, though. It started after we traded Lawton. The Cubs management obviously read these articles, how do you think this makes Hendry feel?

    I have enough of a memory to remember Don Baylor, Andy MacPhail and Ed Lynch.

    Oh, I know - I accidently copied it all. Fixed. Thanks for trying to save me from the gallows though.

    You've really convinced yourself that you'd make a better GM, haven't you?

    It's more than tiresome, I can't stand it. Some people have the memory of a goldfish, and have the art of knee-jerk reactions mastered.

    Hey, guys, think we could be even more dramatic?

    Tejada makes less than Furcal. Unbelievable.

    We all know you love Wilkerson. :lol: I think you might get your wish, though. It's no secret that Jim Bowden has always been infatuated with c-patt. Corey + Guzman + Nolasco = Wilkerson I sure hope that isn't true. It's just my opinion of what we might have to get up, I didn't read it as a possibility anywhere. Secondly, I don't think it's too much to give up at all. Guzman hasn't done -anything- at the major league level, and neither has Nolasco. Our pitching is set anyway with Prior-Z-Wood. Who cares about Corey. Plus, I mean look at the market right now, it's crazy. It might take even more than Corey/Guzman/Nolasco.

    I'm more SURPRISE that Nefti Perez is actually going to represent the DR when candidates like Jhonny Peralta, and Rafael Furcal are still out there. Now that is.... :shock: If Jimy is a misspell, is Jhonny?

    What a loss to the Americans. :(

    I think Nomar's more than 50% headed to Cleveland.
  21. fearthecubs
    Yup. Don't ever doubt that franchise, btw. They always know whats going on. Cubs could learn so much from Schuerholtz and Jocketty.

    Umm....no. And don't sit in that basket full of eggs over there, either.

    Thanks for the link on us not pursuing Burnett, everything I've read until that said we were interested. Maybe we're too late to the party, but..L.A. got Furcal...why are things always different for us? Here's something to cheer you all up that I created in 30 seconds. http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/2682/captny10712040709dodgersfurcal1.jpg

    From what I heard, CLTV's source was someone on Chicago radio so I can't provide you a web link. Here is the info for the Cubs entering on Burnett, also word is on the street also that the Cardinals have Burnett signed if they'll offer the 5th year. Cubs are rumored to just have switched their 5/50 from Furcal to Burnett. Edit: According to FOXSports.com's Ken Rosenthal, the Cubs could make a serious run at A.J. Burnett after losing out on Rafael Furcal. Well, he's probably a better hitter than Neifi Perez, but can he really play shortstop? The Cardinals and Blue Jays appear to be the top suitors for Burnett at the moment, though the Mets, Nationals, Rangers and Mariners could also be in the running. Source: FOXSports.com
