Honestly that is the stupidest thing I can imagine Hendry doing. KB will have a field day with this. There is NO good reason for the Cubs to have not offered Wood arbitration..it was a win win situation for us.

Sure there is a reason. We can't afford him and a bat. I don't see what people aren't getting about this. As Tim Dierkes on mlbtr said:

We don't have much money to work with at all, and you can't assume a trade is going to be there. Gotta think with your heads instead of your cocks sometimes, our bigger need is a bat, and it's very possible we wouldn't have been able to get a good one with Wood on the payroll as well.
