2010-11 Cubs Offseason: I, For One, Welcome Our New .196-Hitting Overlord

[Yeti]

Jeez, about the only people I wouldn't be willing to trade Snork and Grabow for are Snork and Grabow.

This includes the Dodgers

Ken Rosenthal says the Cubs want to trade for James Loney.

Meh?

Good average, decent OBP, not much in the way of slugging.  Averages about 10-12 HR a year and Ks a good bit.

ETA:  He's under 100 K/year in every season so far.  His highest total was 95 last year.  He walks about half as much as he Ks.  He's also only 26.

He's just one fat chick in the sack away from being the next Mark Grace.

On days that it's Wells' turn to start and he needs to start warming up, I'm looking forward to Riggins telling him, "Loosen up, Randy baby."

Another promotion from within.  Have the Cubs hired anyone from outside the organization since the team was sold?

I guess, 'We got the ingredients, Dad. We got the management and we got the players, so we've got the ingredients to win a World Series.'"

Probably looking for those smaller-type graves for children one finds at the cemetery.

Or buying a shovel.
