According to Paul Sullivan The Cubs have spoken to Rich Aurilia's agent and they may look into offering Aurilia a one-year deal to take Cedeno's spot and back up Aramis Ramirez and Derrek Lee.
"We're a long ways from camp," Hendry said. "Maybe there's a potential addition we don't know about who could serve a different role in the utility situation."

The Peavy Update:
Jim Hendry will sit down with the new owner, when that situation is resolved to talk about adding a 63 million dollar contract in Jake Peavy. If not they will explore the market for a FA starting pitcher (I do think the 5Th started will be someone we bring in, because I think we are going to keep Marshall as the 6Th man, and he's the most feasible candidate on the Cubs roster.)
New Cubs poll up!
I really do think Peavy will be a Cub by the time the season starts.
ReplyDeleteI agree as well, but I'll say by the deadline. We don't know for sure if we can take on that budget, we might know in a week or at seasons start. But we do have the pieces to get him.

ReplyDeleteI agree, Olson is a carbon copy of Sean Marshall, who the pads want. (I do think Marshall is a hair better.)
