The Cubs don't but it would of been nice to have the 2 week window after the WS to re-sign him. Because, I think the Dodgers will re-sign if they have enough money.

Let him go

Why would you want to sign him? I doubt that they would offer him Arby, especially with that divorce going on.

He's a good pitcher, a good clubhouse guy, the players like him, etc. But, I doubt he gets redign because the Cubs are getting youngers and I see at least 1 kid in the starting rotation next year. And, I'm fine with that.

Forget him. If you want to do something to the rotation, then you can hopefully Trade Big Z, sign Cliff Lee, call up Jay Jackson, and make Gorzelanny a reliever.

His K/9 rate is decreasing, his BABIP is insanely low, and he has gotten more swings out of the zone this year than any other year of his career. He is going to want a multi-year deal and the Cubs would be flat out stupid to give him one.

wait r yall seriously talking about bringing back Ted Lilly? One good game and you want him back?

i wouldnt say his stats were terrible this year.... but there's a reason the cubs traded him...move on...we dont need him anymore...there's bigger fish in the sea

 

[Bears are #1]

meh. I still want fuku and lee traded

That one ended up happening with lee. They probably won't get Fukudome trade because of his horrible contract.

I'd be fine with eating 75% of his contract. Anything else is gravy. Although, I don't think that's the right way to go, it's the way I think we'll go.

The Cubs said they will eait half of Kosuke's contract next year and I think they will be able to trade him.
