Update 3:15 Lee Hamilton, on MLB late night says , some sources of his said the Cubs and Padres are starting to renegotiate and the names he is hearing are Sean Marshall, Scott Olsen, Ronny Cedeno, Kevin Hart, and Jeff Stevens and Josh Vitters not being Josh Vitters not being involve. He says the first time the Cubs pulled out was because they did not want to give up Vitters.
If Vitters is not involve, that will be so good. I will not be mad for throwing Marshall in because the Cubs are able to keep there best prospect and if a pitcher has to miss awhile the Cubs have Chad Gaudin (who use to be a starter for Oakland) and Angel Guzman (Angel has started before and is a young guys that has a strong arm).
ESPN 100 and wsj.com is reporting that the Cubs will know who the top bidder an who won in the middle of the week. The Jim Hendry will go ask the new owner if they will take on Peavy contract (2 out of 3 top bidders said they will take in Jake Peavy Contract) and then that is when you will here the Jake Peavy rumors again.
On Mlbtraderumors, it says that the Padres either have to trade Peavy or Giles or even both. Brian Giles wants to stay in San Diego and he has to approve a trade, he decline 2 trades last year. Jake Peavy will probably be the first one traded because they can also get more prospects from him, and if Peavy gets injure during the season, San Diego is out of luck.
I will keep you posted

I usually find alot of my rumors through reasearch and the papaers. MLBTR.com is a great site for rumors. I also recommend Cubs.com message board, depending on who is reporting and if they have a link wether it is legit. I do have sources and sites I check everyday but they are hidden gems that I do not want to reveal. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteI do want to say that your postings are looking better just remeber to use spell check. Above you have "2 out od 3"
Also during slow rumor days do a thoughts post or projections or ideas on how to make the Cubs better. Give stats and media links to support your ideas and thoughts.
Keep up the good work!
