DeRosa wants 3/27. That's why he's out of the Cubs price range.

Well for me, whenever it is said that someone is out of the Cubs price range it just goes to show how poorly Hendry has managed his resources. A team with a $135 million payroll shouldn't have to say that they can't afford someone that fills a need.

Ding, and the sad thing is we are talking about not being able to afford middle of the road talent. The Grabow signing makes me madder every time I think about it because there is a glut of RPs on the market, we have quality internal candidates, and he's mediocre at best.
