This is rich.  Free agent ranking are out and losing Rich Harden (Type B) only gets us a supplemental pick while losing closer extraordinaire Kevin Gregg (Type A) and lone lefty John Grabow (Type A) nets us both (potentially) a first rounder and a supplemental pick.  This list makes no sense at all.  In what world is Gregg in the top 20% at his position?  Unless that position involves producing stained underpants.

Gregg is in the top 20 percent of closers wearing rec-specs.

Preferred, dummy. "Ability to play baseball" was a "preferred" requirement and they signed Aaron Miles anyway. You probably have a better chance of passing the CPA exam today than Aaron Miles does of ever being good at his job.

And you were CFO and Controller of Sports-Library.com and Ivychat Enterprises.

Wait, what?  I stopped putting money into my 401K because I assumed that I'd be able to retire on my Sports-Library investment.

Now you're telling me the cheddar isn't being stacked?

As opposed to this?  Curious as I see both on my browser clearly.

Phildo actually gets something right for once (Curtis Granderson is a very good player and the Cubs should attempt to acquire him). But of course, he completely fucks up the rationale for such a move.

QuoteBut if the Tigers really are willing to trade the 28-year-old Granderson, a guy with old-school baseball skills and leadership traits off the charts, then the Cubs must do everything possible to get him.

QuoteAs a left-handed hitter, he is a very nice fit for the Cubs. He has a very reasonable contract that, not including a 2013 option, is $23.75 million for three years. And as an intelligent, uncannily cool presence, he's the next best thing to Derek Jeter.

QuoteIf Dombrowski wants to talk about Carlos Marmol, potentially a closer for the next two or three years, and Starlin Castro, who could have a Shawon Dunston impact and tenure at shortstop, Hendry should be willing.

Castro and Dunston are both black, athletic, and Cubs. Might as well be the same person!

QuoteFor a Chicago team, he's a unique commodity, as anyone who has spent 15 minutes with him would know. He's the perfect piece to have in place as Derrek Lee sails toward free agency.

Would Curtis move to first base if Derrek leaves?

No.  He would become the token morgan.
