I agree with Robert Waters. ... DeRosa goes to the outfield, of course. But I'm not sure I'd give up on Theriot. Nor do I dismiss the possibility of Fontenot...
Very true. I heard the same thing about the White Sox today. They offered arbitration to Orlando Cabrera, not because they want him back but because they want...
The Daily Herald reports that the Cubs have NOT offered Kerry Wood salary arbitration. So they get no draft picks as compensation. I guess they really don't...
Wow. Afraid to offer, because we knew he would accept? D ... From: cubryno84 To: thecubhouse@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, December 02, 2008 7:08 AM Subject:...
Gary, Apparently they don't. I was hoping he'd come back because he was a favorite of mine and secondly, I thought he could be insurance for the pen...

I don't really like the DL either. I believe the pitcher should take his turn at bat just like the rest of the team. I usually root for the NL team in the...
I wouldn't mind having the Cubs re-sign Wood as long as it isn't as closer. I got nervous whenever he came on in the 9th not knowing if he was going to save...
