According to crazy rumor guy, the cubs are taking offers on castro.

QuoteStarlin Castro could be obtained for two impact prospects, according to Nightengale.

If that's offered, the Cubs have to take it. Because maybe one of the prospects would turn out to be as good as Starlin Castro.

Maybe the Cubs could finally get Brian Roberts.

To be fair, they really are thin in the pitching department. If they could get two IMPACT pitchers, they should sleep on it, talk to their wives and call someone back.

I'm literally standing in the baggage claim area at San Francisco airport next to David DeJesus and his wife.

DPD. DeJesus really doesn't care for Soriano.

Are you going to elaborate on this for us?

Yeah, Gil...

"Sources"?

Quote``Castro is one of the core players we are building around. Nothing has changed,'' team president Theo Epstein said via e-mail Thursday. ``We look forward to Starlin wearing a Cubs uniform for a long time.''

Notice Epstein didn't explicitly say they weren't trading Castro. No denial from the czar, no future on the North Side.

He's gone.

Too bad you caught her on "dress like a hobo day".
Maybe she mistakenly thought San Francisco was famous for its extensive population of hobos.

They actually do sport quite a collection. Happy hobos. Kurt would be conflicted. On the one hand he'd be appalled that there were so many but he'd have to feel good about how stoned and well-nourished they all seem.

I can't wait until this team is no longer awful.
