OK, let's get this new thread started. What will be Hendry's first move this offseason?

RIP old thread

b/c he's managing the Phillies AAA team now...(they have about the same talent though.)

Sad to see the old one go, but it was time for a new one. I think I could get it to load in 1 of 50 attempts.

I hope Hendry does something for the bullpen. Salaries should be somewhat reasonable there for acceptable talent.

how long has the "Triangle building" been proposed now?

I think the triangle building idea was first put out there in 2001, IIRC.

Meh. I started the last one, so I decided to start this one after almost a week of not being able to open the old thread.

Sad to see that the old thread has to be abandoned due to technical issues.

the same thing is happening to the "Critically Analyze Law Schools in Texas....." (345 pages).

Wasn't there a Mr. Cub and a WooWoo or something to that effect?

Mr. Cub morphed into Dr. Cub, Esq. There were a few other "one and done" names, too. I only listed the long lasting ones.

And TimAg95 morphed into Old Style because of a stalker. Only 2 user names have been perma banned.

While I am a little disappointed myself, perhaps a change will be good.

As long as it is a 1-year, incentive laden deal.

Cubs are also resportedly interested in Carlos Pena to play first. I guess we are going to go for the cheap "hope they bounce back from injury" players.

Thanks for starting this thread - was getting tired of the time outs on the old one.

Webb sounds interesting.
I'd really be in favor of going after Woody if it is a modest contract.
Pena? No thanks. I'd rather go after Lance Berkman.
bluestainedivy
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I'd take Dunn over Pena, myself.

That's if contracts were not a factor. Granted, they are probably the biggest factor.

Dunn apparently wants 4 years, $60MM.

And in other news, Theriot has been traded to the Cardinals.

Supposedly, Ryan said on a STL radio station that he's finally on the good side of the Cubs/Cards rivalry.

Also, Muskrat, tweeted that a new pitching coach should be named today.

Theriot is probably still upset because the Cubs refused to pay him what he wasn't worth last season.

F Theriot in the ear.

It looks like Dunn is heading to the South Side.

RIP Ron. I remember my dad telling me you're the reason he bought me a Wilson A2000.
