The 2010 Cubs Free Agent and Roster Moves Thread: SAVEENG OUR KUBBEEZ!!11

[Ghost of Dave Rosello]

This made me throw up a little bit in my mouth:

Their likely 2010 committments:
...
IF - Aaron Miles - $2.7MM
...

Fuck.

Miles should earn every penny of that playing in Des Moines.

Either that or eat the money and release his ass. Then he can go back to The Shire and help Frodo take the fucking ring back to Mount Doom.

I say KEEP BRADLY. yes i know but hear me out. If this new hitting couch can help Bradly,and Soriano start hitting again then great.
But if Bradly still isnt hitting then i say we trade him around the trade deadline. And if we do trade him then All we need to do is call up Colvin and our out field would be Fuld, Soriano, Fukudome, Colvin, and Johnson[if we resign him hope the cubs do].

You have me at the first sentence.. And minus the misspelling. Colvin, Fuld, Johnson? Yea, whatever.

If this was all it will take to get the team hitting again, why didn't they get a new one during the season?  Couldn't team sponsor Walter E Smith have hooked them up?  I hope they give the old one to Cindy Sandburg; she got the most use out of it.

Carl Sandburg's wife was also named Cindy, and supposedly slept with Hack Wilson and Kiki Cuyler, among others.

I'm sad that I missed this, because I'd have gone with "Stacker of Wheat" especially as Zack was slightly more her era than Wilson and Cuyler.

Judging by his contract, I'm guessing Hendry will be going after Gary Matthews Jr this offseason.

"Gary Matthews Jr. indicated Tuesday that he expects to begin the 2010 season with a team other than the Angels.
It's going to be tough for the Halos to dump the remainder of Matthews' five-year, $50 million contract on another club this winter. He hit .248/.325/.383 in the 2009 regular season with just four homers in 316 at-bats. But, he's now gone public with his desire to leave Anaheim and GM Tony Reagins is likely to shop around for trade partners. "I don't expect to be back; it's time to move on," said the outfielder. "I'm ready to play for an organization that wants me to play every day. This organization has other plans, and that's OK." Oct. 28 - 6:20 am et
