Derrick lee will be a free agent after next year as well as Prince Fielder cause well Milwaukee jsut wont haev the money to keep him.
so here's a thought why not let lee go and sign fielder you get younger, get left handed power bat who kills at wrigley and arguably is better offensively then lee and is in his prime

Why are the Cubs so eager to let Rich Harden go? Apparently they're not going to offer him arbitration, so in essence he can sign with anyone now. He made 15 starts last year and insisted he was fine when the Cubs shut him down at the end of the year. Either the docs have seen something that scares the bejeezes out of them

The deadline for teams to offer arbitration to their eligible free agents came and went Tuesday night with a number of interesting names on a list of players who were not offered, meaning the team that signs them will not lose any draft pick compensation for doing so. As far as the Cubs' needs go, a few names stuck out from the list of

Jim Hendry would NOT do this trade from what I'm reading and I personally would not give up Marmol and Castro together. How many Cub fans would? Castro is already a 19 yr old legend and Marmol is becoming a real closer and developing a closer personality,but it's taken awhile ... Castro has not even been evaluated yet. We should at least do that before we decide his

Got to love the Cubs and their infinite wisdom....when last years deadline came around and they just couldn't bear the thought of trading Rich Harden and getting something in return for him because they were in the "playoff race" (hahaha) I questioned their wisdom as I usually do...I mean how can you not question a team that has d

Feel free to bust me over the head for things you think I have wrong, but I expect hearty congratulations for the things I have right. Just kidding, but I think this will make for some good d

We just signed Rudy Jaramillo to fill our vacant hitting coach spot yesterday. Would he be able to help Milton Bradley?
I see Bradley having a bounce back year. As a matter of fact, I see the entire Cubs team having a bounce back year. They took last yea
