I still don't think its a big deal. Technically we are still only 5 games out of the wildcard, I don't think Hendry wanted to show he was throwing in the towel, even though he probably should have. The prospects we got back for 1 month of these guys were probably mediocre at best, and like Rok said, we wouldn't be saving much salary at all.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
What risk is there in offering Harden arbitration? He's obviously healthy right now, I wouldn't mind seeing him accept and stay a Cub for at least another year. I just think there's no way of that happening and the 2 draft picks would be great.
