Nice to see some Cubs news out there today! I do like this deal, even though I was a big fan of Jake Fox. More notes for tonight:
- Baseball's Winter Meetings are Monday through Thursday next week. Expect maybe another move by the Cubs!
- Today I had a Question and Answer with Bruce Miles from the Daily Herald to talk Cubs. Click here to check it out!
- Yesterday I updated a lot of rumors. (link)
- The Cubs would love to have Curtis Graderson in center field in 2010, says Phil Rodgers.
- Edwin Jackson is another Tiger on the Cubs radar.
- Muskat reports that Rudy Jaramillo is preparing for Chicago by taking a look at some video tapes.
- Chicago's Tribunes Poll: Who will the Cubs miss most? A) Harden B) Gregg C) Johnson
- Speaking of polls don't forget to vote on ours on the right sidebar.
- According to Zach Links of MLB Trade Rumors, the Cubs and Cardinals are in the lead to sign free agent pitcher Vicente Padilla.
With a trade and a chat today, I'll probably save this week's Winter Ball Report for a a slower day this weekend.
