It seems like the Cubs are in on Fielder from listening to Jed Hoyer. But him and Epstein are good at being quiet.

Yeah, but the phrasing of "long term assets" could also apply to Pujols considering all these contracts will be long term.

Yeah, Hoyer is just too good at not hinting anything.

Maybe he's holding his breath that the Sox will trade another player to the Cubs for pennies on the dollar like they did with Santos to the Blue Jays.

About the oveblown, he said that on MLBTV.com. I'm not hopeful on Fielder joining the Cubs, but again I wouldn't be surprise.

when did this have to do with the sox?

anyway, do you follow baseball? relief pitchers come a dime a dozen. So if I can obtain a teams pitching prospect as a part of building the farm for potential use or for trading chips....I would do it. Again, its fucking sergio santos....a closer. anything else?

The Rox ask for DJ LeMahieu for Ian Stewart and Cubs said no. Good move!

That's a good question. And it's basically the same as asking, "what is a sox fan doing trolling in the Cubs forum?".

I don't actually care what the White Sox are doing. I just saw this move and it made me chuckle. But notice how I didn't go into the Sox forum trolling about it.

well if you had a laugh you dont really follow baseball, and my respect for you knowledge of baseball just dropped. No one is trolling anything, its baseball talk, simple as that....but if you want to cry like a little ***** like you always do.....than by all means go for it.

If you feel this way, then you don't really know what the word "trolling" means. Similarly, I have to question your use of the word "simple".

And speaking of "crying", don't be a troll if you can't take people firing back at you or calling you out for what you are. It also might be a good idea to stop trying to manipulate the situation by using words erroneously.

Price of pitching continues to increase. I wonder if this is going to make Garza that much more valuable in trade.
