MLB Trade Rumors (Free subscription) | yesterday
Although the Cubs would "love" to pull off a deal for Blue Jays ace Roy Halladay, they are unlikely to pull off such a deal as they lack the necessary room in payroll, according to Ken Rosenthal and Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports. The Cubbies have a combined $42.375MM committed to pitchers Carlos Zambrano, Ted Lilly, and Ryan Dempster. They would have a hard time finding a taker for Alfonso...

The Cubs are one of the teams the Blue Jays have contacted regarding pitcher Roy Halladay.— Carrie Muskat Obviously the Jays like the Cubs prospects (Starlin Castro for sure) or they wouldn’t have contacted the Cubs. However, before Cubs fans start salivating at the prospect of the former Cy Young winner in the rotation with Ted Lilly, Carlos Zambrano, and Ryan Dempster, there’s...

I was thinking recently of who the Braves will trade one of their starting pitchers to since they will be trading one of them this offseason, or so they say. It's obvious that Derek Lowe will be hard to deal due to his contract (although all the experts thought he was a good value last offseason), and the Braves would be crazy to trade either Jair Jurrgens or Tommy Hanson . So Javier Vazquez is the...

Fangraphs is once again going to list the projections on their player pages from a variety of sources, Bill James , CHONE, Marcel....maybe more. Bill James projections are up first and here's how the Cubs ranked by wOBA and their 2009 wOBA ( explanation of wOBA here ). I'll try and expand when new projections are released. Age is their 2010 playing age. You can click on their names to get their full...

It's understandable for consumers to be happy about and test out their new purchases: Porsche drivers would want to take a spin in a new ride, new homeowners have dinner parties, and kids with new toys play with them until their parents snap. But there's a fine line between enjoying something new, and going overboard in praising it. New Cubs owner Tom Ricketts lost sight of that line . “I’ll...

Ryan Dempster told the Chicago Tribune the players would give Milton Bradley another chance. The Cubs are not going to " give Bradley away for nothing and pay the majority of the $21 million left on his contract " according to the Tribune .

With the focus on 2010 and the sale of the team likely three weeks away from closing, there’s a lot of discussion on what’s going to happen to Rich Harden and will the Cubs offer him arbitration. The Cub Reporter goes so far as to suggest that this decision could affect Jim Hendry’s hold on the Cubs general manager job (see: Arbitration is Going to be the End of Jim Hendry ). First...

This is probably no more than a formality for 2009, but might as well go through the motions. Last year our wonderful readers voted Geovany Soto as the Cubs 2008 MVP, so let's see who we come up with this year (attempts to build suspense).

Ted Lilly didn't suck in 2009. In fact, he was the rotation's most steady force. You know who did suck in 2009? THIS PRICK! STARTING PITCHERS Ted Lilly, B+ -- The Cubs' lone All-Star representative won 12 games and led the team with a 1.05 WHIP. Though he pitched like it in 2009, 2010 is a contract year for Teddy Neversmile. Expect big things. Ryan Dempster, B- -- Dempster pitched

Joe Torre. AP Photo/Gene J. Puskar Notable Notes Seven of eight ESPN "experts" are picking the St. Louis Cardinals to beat the Dodgers. "Baseball Tonight" anchor Karl Ravech is even picking the Cardinals to sweep. The lone dissenter is Eric Neel who is picking the Dodgers in five. I don't get it. Starting Wednesday a new season will begin. What happened in the regular season is...

No matter which team you prefer, you're either sad to see baseball go or glad the long, torturous 2009 season is done. Benjy will wrap up the season for both teams (and look ahead to 2010) later in the week, but for now, here's what went down yesterday. Sox Rally Falls Short Down 5-0, the Sox put on a small rally late in their season finale but couldn't quite catch up as they fell to Detroit 5-3 ....

The Cubs ended the 2009 season in a game that pretty much sums up the year; they got some good pitching, someone homered, and in the end, they couldn't come through in the clutch, this time losing 5-2 to the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Cubs finish the season 83-78....
