    Zach McCormack, I believe.

    - BA Shortly before that was posted, I saw that Dail's name was no longer bolded in BA's draft database. I don't know if it means anything, but the same is now true for 23rd rounder Jeff Pruitt. His name is no longer in bold, either.

    minorleaguebaseball.com rosters have: Jeremy Papelbon to Iowa, again. Runey Davis to Boise.

    Little of column A. Little of column B.

    Simokaitis was traded to the Mariners last year. Don't know if he was released by the Mariners or was just a minor league free agent, but his only appearance in the minors this season is with Mesa. Per Nathan Baliva, he had a tryout as a pitcher in Peoria and, evidently, was good enough.

    Baseball America updated their draft database with the signings thus far. They show 23rd rounder Jeff Pruitt as being signed.

    I'm mostly a lurker now. I come on here for information, but I rarely post. Most of the posters from the old cubs espn boards have new names. I barely know who's who anymore.

    Meh. The Elias rankings don't always make sense. Just because a player is type A doesn't mean he had a great season. Marquis' ability to eat up innings may qualify him. An argument could be made that the baseball economy is headed towards a pitcher like that making eight figures. In that case, you'd be correct. For my money, I'd still want more. If Marquis is type A, I don't think the Cubs offer.
  9. Wabasha31
    Marquis as a type A free agent would be a bad thing. There is no way you'd offer him arbitration. He'd likely take it and get $10 million +. I understand your overall point, though. I've gotten the impression that Marquis would likely have to be moved for the Cubs to add a major piece.
  10. Wabasha31
    Baseball America has him listed as signed with a bonus of $906,000.
  11. Wabasha31
    Eyre actually has a $3.8M player option. I can't imagine him declining it considering his year, so, like Vance said, he will be back. The Cubs have a $1.2M team option on Ward. My guess is that Ward is back.
  12. Wabasha31
    LIES. Anybody know where this guy is pitching? We may not see him in rookie ball at all this year, more likely Instructs at the Mesa complex.
  13. Wabasha31
    According to BA's minor league rosters, Chris Robinson is back at Tennessee, and Carlos Rojas has taken his place at Iowa. Also, I just noticed that Matt Camp, Jonathan Mota and Alfred Joseph are on their Daytona roster.
  14. Wabasha31
    Agreed. Can't complain about Cotts and I'm not worried about losing Vasquez, but I didn't like saying good-bye to Aardsma. Also, erik, love the signature. I worked retail throughout college. I remember a sociology class where people were stating that humanity was inherently good. I disagreed.
  15. Wabasha31
    My guess is that this clears up 40-man space for Lilly, Ward, or Marquis, and Reyes will be re-signed to a minor league contract.
  16. Wabasha31
    Per Rotoworld: Didn't see it posted anywhere else.
  17. Wabasha31
    I believe that Bynum was traded to open a spot up for Lilly.
  18. Wabasha31
    The Pirates would pick before the Cubs. I believe the tie-breaker for the June draft is based on who had the lower record in the prior year.
  19. Wabasha31
    From the same link as above: Now, that's funny.
  20. Wabasha31
    Link Didn't see it posted anywhere. Eric Patterson and Jae Kuk Ryu represent the Cubs.

    minorleaguebaseball.com has added a few more names to the Boise roster... rhp Alessandro Maestri lhp Jeremy Papelbon lhp Jayson Ruhlman ss Sammy Baez 1b/3b Russ Canzler ss Steven Clevenger of Ryan Episcopo of Alfred Joseph The Mesa roster on MiLB is still a mess, but they added some signed draftees... rhp Jacob Renshaw rhp Charles Platt rhp Ronald Clipp ss Matt Matulia
  22. Wabasha31
    It's here. Link It was a link provided in the official release that was quoted earlier in this thread.
  23. Wabasha31
    According to cubs.com, the other players signed include: 15 Matthew Canepa, C 23 Charles Platt, RHP 24 Matt Matulia, SS 30 Donald Walters, RHP 32 Cesar Valentin, SS 33 Ronald Clipp, RHP 36 Greibal Cuevas-Novas, RHP 40 Eli Diaz, RHP 47 Andrew McCormick, RHP
  24. Wabasha31
    I think that is just last year's Mesa roster with a few names added to it. I'm pretty sure Nick Crouch, Dave Seara and Chad Underwood were released during the offseason/ST.
  25. Wabasha31
    Heh. Nice to see a fellow fan of the truth.
