Potential Players on Trading Block for Summer

[kbwsb]

I met Aardsma at one of the SOITOW games. I hung around after the game, and he and Dempster were signing autographs and talking to fan right inside the concourse at Wrigley. Aarsdma had a lot of friends and family around...I think he's from Illinois, or maybe Iowa.

IIRC, his family is from the area, but he grew up in Colorado. They are supposedly all Cubs fans.

Perhaps it was intended as a facetious question.

No, Mikey asked who we got him for, someone else answered, then you answered, then I made my smart ass response. No irony at all.
