I'd be more disapointed if I were a Tigers fan. Granted they don't have money coming out the rear, but after being interested in the likes of Finley, Glaus, Beltre and others, and not even really being in the running for any of them, they look pretty stupid.

They do look stupid. they fucked up.

No one has touched on the fact Johnson is going to the Yanks?

Sox get Clement.

 

Oh well.

 

He couldn't handle Chicago, theres no way he can handle Boston, right!?

That's funny. Looking at his stats, I could swear his career took a drastic improvement when he left Florida for Chicago.

I didn't look at his stats, but I've always heard he was very inconsistent in Chicago. I guess the wind could have a lot to do with it, but playing in Boston can't be any easier.

So, I guess this means Glendon Rusch is now in the starting rotation? I think he did a great job in '04, but his career numbers suggest that he's not trustworthy in having a lot of faith thrown his way. I don't need a major move, but the Cubs better fix some things soon. They've made more moves in the announcers booth than they have with the actual team.

I think it will be. He's now in a considerably weaker division, not to mention the fans of Chicago have become much more venomous than Sox fans in recent years. With the Sox winning in '04, Cubs fans are going to be even worse than they were last season. Think about that.

You have a prospect by the name of Angel Cruz who could be in your starting rotation by mid-season. If he stays healthy he's going to be damn good...throws harder than Kerry Wood with decent command.

Of course, EA horrifically underrates minor leaguers and overrates marginal major leaguers (such as Doug Glanville).

E...A...Sports!

 

If they pay us enough, we'll give them game!

Wade Miller could be non-tendered. I hope Theo takes a flier on him. When healthy his stuff is filthy.

I wouldn't mind Theo signing Wade at all. Top 5 compared players are Orlando Hernandez, Jim Weaver, C.C. Sabathia, Roy Halladay, and Brad Penny which isn't a bad group to be in. He also made $3.40 Million last year so he likely wouldn't cost that much and could be a solid #5 starter for us after Schilling returns and Wakefield shifts to the bullpen.
