Going down to the damn wire..
Any idea who the new starter is tonight with Dempster gone?
Casey Coleman probably
I didn't see this post till now so late response. I'm all for a player using his 10/5 rights. Never had an issues with that aspect. I had a HUGE issue with Dempster saying "I'll go to Atlanta" and then saying no when the deal got made. It put a lot of egg on Theo and Hoyer's face. Not only did it screw them out of a great deal. It DESTROYED any leverage the Cubs had with L.A. to get a deal done. So in the end Dempster only screwed himself. Had he been honest with them that it was LA or bust from the get go. He may have actually wound up in L.A. Instead he's getting rocked in the AL. No problem with a guy picking where they want to go. Screwing over the Cubs that badly is another matter.
BJax in the lineup today.
Jeff Baker has been dealt to Detroit for two PTBNL
Well, not that it was unexpected, but Jackson has been striking out a ton! I don't have the exact amount, but it's ridiculous.
Neither him nor Vitters look ready.
Sveum said that in the real world, Castro is a 7 or 8 hitter..
I hope it's just to light a fire under his ass.
Shark was dominant tonight, albeit against Houston.
