It is for them, hombre.

If DeRosa had played for any other team than the Cubs in the past 2 seasons, no one here would really give a shit and wouldn't consider it a "big move."

It isn't Sabathia to the Brewers, but it's going to help them a lot. The fact the he is an ex-Cub and a fan favorite just makes it sting a little more.

They have SUCKED up the middle and at 3rd this year in the absence of Glaus and without Greene doing anything. This is a big move for them.

Well he's not gonna be playing SS and he's really not that great at 3B, I'll bet he sees most of his PT in the OF.

The Cards need infield help badly. This acquisition is about improving the infield.
