Word around the ‘nets is that the real reason that the Cubs are going to arbitration with Theriot is to save money in order to sign Chan Ho Park to a one year deal…
not sure about this one...
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…
Chan Ho Park: good fastball, great beard.
Kevin Gregg excels in giving up untimely dingers. That is about it.
Ball.
For some reason, the B Jays have decided to throw him a 1yr/$2.75 mil contract for ’10. He did manage to pick up 23 saves in ’09 for the C Bears, but looked awful in doing so.
Good luck.
Jim “Jimmy Baseball” Edmonds is back in the mix…. The Brew Crew has given Edmonds his shot to get back to the Bigs, offering him league minimum plus incentives if he can make the squad’s 40-man roster. The 39 y/o took off 2009 after a solid 2008…I’d love to have him in Cubbies blue. Best [...]
It has become apparent that Johnny Damon’s tenure with the Yanks is over, with Wednesday’s signing of Randy Winn to patrol the OF in NY. The short list of his possible suitors is headed by the B-Jays. If Toronto wants to give Johnny and his noodle-arm a $7 mil, 1 yr deal, more power to [...]
The Cubs will be in Mesa until 2016…keeping their Spring-Ball home of 57 years for another six seasons, at least. The contract with Ho Ho Kam park will expire in 2011, so look for an improved fascility at that point.
Xavier Nady is trading in one set of pinstriped baseball trousers for another pair of pinstriped baseball trousers. And pinstriped baseball blouses… $3.3 million guaranteed plus $2 million in incentives based on games played…Good work Hendry. D-Lee has a backup, and Kosuke has a platoon-mate. I’m pumped.
The Cubs are looking to fill another outfielder spot…the pool is getting shallower. Even though fan-favorite Reed Johnson is still on the market, the Cubs brass are taking long looks at both Jermaine Dye and Xavier Nady. They stack up fairly evenly, with career stats as follow: Dye: 2257 Career AB; .280 AVG; 87 Dongs [...]
I think that we can now without a doubt put an asterik in the record books. With Mark McGwire’s admission to using steroids in his record breaking season and the heavy evidence that Bonds did the same, I think that Hank Aaron and Roger Maris should still be celebrated as ball’s home run kings. We, [...]
I attempted to emulate Joe’s 2010 Cubbie lineup card with my own for the Mariners, but after staring at the active roster for a while it seems to be a Herculean feat. Not only did manager Don Wakamatsu use some 140 different lineups throughout ’09, there has also been quite a bit of shaking up [...]
Los Cubs have announced that Greg Maddux will join the team, in the position of assistant to GM Jim Hendry. Glad to hear it; Maddux is one of the best of all time, mentally. His duties will be mentoring in nature, helping younger players develop. Truth be told, I just wanted to put that picture [...]
