Speaking of the winter meetings, can anyone suggest good Baseball/Cubs related twitter feeds to follow?
I have Jon Heyman, the Muskrat, Ace, MLB Trade Rumors, and the Friendly Blogfines, and that's about it.

ESPN has Buster Olney and Jerry Crasnick posting tweets.
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->11:46am: ESPN Chicago's Bruce Levine says the Cubs and Royals met last night to discuss Bradley-Gil Meche scenarios. The money matches up pretty well here, as both players are signed through 2011. And don't forget the Cubs tried to sign Meche as part of the 2006-07 offseason spending spree. On the flip side, the Kansas City Star's Bob Dutton tweets that the Royals would have to be "overwhelmed" to trade Meche. Bradley could technically be described as overwhelming, but not in the way the Royals meant.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Wasn't Olney's Twitter account suspended a few months ago?

Bradley for Meche, would be outstanding, IMO.

disappointing, grim, what difference does it make? to me, 85 wins is grim. 4 winning seasons in a row doesn't mean shit to me.

Absolutely, but I'm trying to understand why they would trade him with only 1 year left on his contract.

They have a very aggressive team Psychiatrist who craves challenges.

I actually made a mistake. They are both signed through 2011.

So the media has reported the Cubs are aggressively shopping Bradley, but has also negated just about every story. Hmmm.

The longer this drags on, the more I fear we're getting stuck with Bradley past the meetings, and the offseason will end up like 2005.
