There have been rumors that Baltimore may be dealing Ty Wigginton by the break. Since I don't think Hendry will go anywhere near DeRosa again, he may be a good option for us. He is pretty much a DeRosa clone, plays a ton of positions and is coming off 3 great years in a row. Doesn't make a ton of money either, only 500K more than Miles this year.

Damn, I was a little thrown off by Wigginton's crappy slow start (.253/.293/.385), but he's hitting .393/.452/.607 so far in June. He would be a great fit, and probably wouldn't cost us much.

I saw we give them Kevin Hart and let them keep the shitastic "player to be named" that we are owed for Dick Hill.

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->CUBS IN BRIEF: DeRosa is indeed on team's radar
June 27, 2009 BY GORDON WITTENMYER gwittenmyer@suntimes.com No, the Cubs aren't looking to replace Milton Bradley -- not yet. But sources confirmed Friday that the team had conversations with the Cleveland Indians about Mark DeRosa earlier this month when the Indians were shopping the versatile ex-Cub. Baseball insiders expect DeRosa to be traded by the July 31 non-waiver deadline, and the Cubs could find themselves in position to reacquire him depending on the asking price and ownership's willingness to take on about $2 million in salary. The January trade of DeRosa to the Indians for three pitching prospects has been a lightning rod for Cubs fans most of the season -- especially since third baseman Aramis Ramirez injured his shoulder May 8. How well Ramirez performs when he returns from the disabled list, possibly before the All-Star break, could be the decisive factor in how hard the Cubs go after DeRosa, who was the team's only legitimate backup third baseman until he was traded<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd--> Link

Aren't we supposed to be wrapping up that 9 game winning streak right now too? |
