    I didn't realize Buerhle was that bad in the second half. I saw him pitch a couple times last year and he looked good. My bad.

    As far as teams salivating, there are whispers about Florida, the Angels, now the ChiSox, there could be a chance with a Cubs trade with Pinella there.

    I'm not saying the market is jumping, so maybe salivating was the wrong term to use, but it is significantly better than we thought it would be two weeks ago.

    Like I said, Crede is not exactly on my wishlist. Unless there is someone in the minors we are grooming, then I don't particularly want a stop-gap third baseman.

    What it comes down to is that there is interest in A-Rod. We want him gone. It's a win-win situation.

    So now both the Cubs and the White Sox are going to fight for Arod. Terrific!

    Prior and Pavano would make a fantastic couple. Same but different. Like salt and pepper. Ketchup and mustard. If this was make believe, that would be fun to see

    The Cubs would put A-Rod at SS.

    Probably would not want to give up Ramirez.

    Cubs will not let Aramis Ramirez get in the way of acquiring Arod.

    If he is sent to the ChiSox, McCarthy better be in the deal. As far as Crede goes, if he gets the surgery he needs, I'll take him.

    We're talking 4 HRs, 11 RBIs, .622 SLG% last October.

    Any deal involving A-Rod with the Cubs starts with Zambrano. No deal if they won't give him up.

    Then A-Rod's not going to the Cubs.

    I agree. We can't give him up for less than his value and we better not even think of taking players like Prior and Wood.q

    Exactly right. If they aren't willing to give up Zambrano then they aren't getting Rodriguez, because Cashman knows that he can flip him to Anaheim for Ervin Santana +. He holds all the cards right now.

    The link is broken. This was also expected. Green wasn't going to come back no matter what, so instead of going to Scranton he'll try to catch on as a utility guy somewhere. Fasano is just going to test the free agent market, like 98% of the players who have expiring contracts.

    That's a shame. I was hoping to get Sal back next year.
