Agent believes Cubs are interested in......... Dunn.

[cubsneedmiracle]

"If I was going to guess, I would say [Adam Dunn] is probably going to the Cubs, and he'll probably get, you know, 3 years and 40 million bucks," said Sosnick, of Sosnick and Cobbe Sports.

Are the Cubs Interested in Signing Adam Dunn? - Kap's Corner

I still don't think its really that likely.

 

[Jntg4]

Hope not, but it won't happen anyway.

 

[DewsSox79]

oh these reports are going to break alot of hearts when it does not happen.

 

[DewsSox79]

just like how jake peavy singing go cubs go was the writing on the wall he was coming to the cubs.

3 years 40 Million. Sign me up!

Peavy is completely different though, as I've stated before. You have to get the right combo of players to get Peavy. With Dunn, it's just money. Plus, Jake Peavy is Jake Peavy and Adam Dunn is Adam Dunn.

If that agent things Adam Dunn is going to get 3 years, 40 million I'd hate to be one of his clients.

There's not a real big market for Dunn, since he won't go to the AL.

 

[Derkach77]

I think I can live with Dunn for 3 years $40 mill.

 

[The Bandit]

go for it for that kind of money

 

[Diddy1122]

Please for the love of God do not sign Dunn for that money. If he's at 1B in Cubbie Blue next season I will puke all over Jim Hendry.

Ya, we don't need that .900 OPS in the our lineup.

he will. and i would bet he is the yankes DH next year.just a hunch

 

[DewsSox79]

that would be awesome to have dunn playing 1b everyday for 3 years.

it would be the dumbest move for the cubs to do, but hey they want to appease the fans.

still he will be a yankee and will play dh, and will fall in love with the rf short porch.

if he has a choice to be a dh for a team that is always contending for Championships or play b everyday on a pretender that probably may win a division in a few years....im going with the yankees. he will put his mit down for that.

Until we have a source saying the Cubs are close to signing someone, I'm not getting caught up in anything.

 

[poodski]

I saw this thread and thought to myself Dewey is gonna shit a brick.

3/40 is decent enough I suppose would rather be 3/36 or 4/44.

 

[Jntg4]

I still want to see a scenario where we can get Dunn and have Colvin and Jackson both as starters. I guess we'd just trade Byrd for that to happen. But who wants to lose Byrd?

Yes, on both accounts.

No one wants to lose Big Byrd. We almost just wait until Fonzie has a year or two left on his contract, which I think is either this year or next year, and trade his sorry ass.

Not only that, why rush Jackson up? He's got a ton of potential and I'd hate to see him become the next Corey Patterson, haha.

idk, the Cubs said he should be up between May and July, but he'll definitely be ready by 2012 at the latest.

Not really but a good guess on your part thinking i would shit a brick

This is not really a rumor, this is some agent who thinks he will go to the cubs. I really do not put alot of stock into this story, even mlbtr mentioned the price and the story and didnt add the cubs supposed news.

It is just like we were going to get lebron, than dwade, recently carmello anthony and the list goes on.......all because of one small comment from a dumb ass agent. kaplan probably has the biggest woody right now when he heard that, he is probably going to take that little snippet and run with it being the complete idiot homer of a cubs fan that he is.

3/36 never will happen
3/40 very doubtful

 

[Derkach77]

Dew is right 3/40 would probably never happen that agent wants big money for like 5 years.
