DeRosa and Fontenot were on the same team in 2008. One didn't have to leave to make room for the other.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
If Fontenot was gonna start DeRosa didn't have a place here. Miles was then signed to be a backup. Unless you wanted to have a 5 million dollar backup player.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
With Ramirez and Bradley on the team, plus Fontenot not facing LHP, DeRosa would get plenty of ABs.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
But the money saved on DeRosa helped pay for Bradley.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
$2.5M didn't make a difference in Bradley's contract. Now you're just being a douche.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Isn't the explanation Hendry gave for getting rid of DeRosa and Wood?
and why are people complaining about DeRosa and not Wood? As far as I can tell our bullpen is dog ass right now. If anything Wood has been missed more by the Cubs then DeRosa.
