July 31, 200322 yr The only hold up is that Palmerio has to accept his no trade clause back to the team that he came up with. No idea who is involved. Its supposed to be announced at 1:00 in a press conference.
July 31, 200322 yr Ha, that's funny. The Cubs are going after their former players. ESPN Insider also said they are interested in Matt Stairs, why I don't know. I remember Cubs management hinting at a trade at this position when they said Hee Sop was going down to AAA.
July 31, 200322 yr I hope they give up a couple of their good pitching prospects to get him. You've got to wonder how quickly a guy like Palmiero can adjust to NL pitching.
July 31, 200322 yr Author What? I havent heard anything in the BBTN Special and 1:00 has already passed! The deadline is still an hour away.

I think its a really stupid move if they give up anything. Karros has been playing really good and Choi is still very solid and will become a good player.

July 31, 200322 yr And keep in mind just because it becomes 3pm, that doesn't mean that other deals haven't been done, and just not announced yet. It usually takes into the evening to sort out all of the details of the trades that are done.
July 31, 200322 yr Damn, I like him. I really hate it when the Flubs hire guys I like. Takes some of the fun out of rooting for them. Palmero "Hi sammy, still using cork? Sammy "No, I need to come up with something else . . ." Palmero "Have you thought of Viagra?"
July 31, 200322 yr No RP deal not a Cub Stuff can still go through...has anyone read where it's off the table yet?
July 31, 200322 yr Author Something must of happened here. Either way he'll clear waivers. I heard on the radio that both sides confirmed the deal.
