I honestly do not think Fuld can hit big league pitching. Period. He is a nice little player, but he is back up material at best. Steal a base, defensive...
I am not sure which kid from Tampa you are talking about, but it most likely would create another hole by making the trade. Fukudome will just cost money, not...

Nope- his agent has already put out that he wants only a 3 year deal, no more and no less. I'm sure he figures he can show what he has in 3 years, and perhaps...

I guess we'll see come April if he's up with the team. I do believe he'll hit, and hit well. We'll see. Dorothy [Non-text portions of this message have been...
The talking heads on TV were talking about Fukudome like he was NOT one the elite. They put him in a middle category. If that's the case. I hope we don't spend...

I don't think the Cubs are after Tejada, unless they've been blowing smoke about the type of player they're looking for. The player I'd like to get from the...
I would have several problems with this trade, first of all Tike Redman is not what I would call a power hitting lefthanded hitter and his carrer OBP is .315....
Does anyone remember 2-3 years ago when Hendry tried to trade Prior for Tejada AND Bedard?? Bedard, as I recall, was the deal breaker even though he hadn't...
Here's my rationale for that trade beyond the McPhail-Hendry connection... That 16% ticket price increase is awfully extreme. Beyond how the Cubs have always...
The only problem I have with that scenario is that Redman isn't enough for the other team to go to their bullpen and put in a lefty. Teams will keep mowing...

I think it is. Everyone knows the Cubs are zeroed in on Fukudome. He's probably blowing smoke to try and keep the price from getting out of reach. I don't...
