Rowand44 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ Jan 31, 2005 -> 10:55 PM) Hopefully it's Burnitz. I think that's who it'll be, I just don't want it to be Huff, I like and respect Aubrey to much for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tadahito Iguchi Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 It will most likely be Burnitz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/8150856 To replace some of Sosa's power, the Cubs neared an agreement with free-agent outfielder Jeromy Burnitz on a one-year contract with a mutual option for 2006. That deal wouldn't be finalized until the Sosa trade is completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3E8 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Guess they're trying to replace his strikeouts too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnitz was AWFUL away from Coors last year. He'll be lucky to hit .230 with the Slubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Remember a few years ago when they were thinking about acquiring Burnitz and putting him in center? LMAO. Have fun with Jeromy, boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Agent Howard Simon said Jeromy Burnitz could decide on his new team as early as this morning. Talks with the Pirates yesterday included an exchange of contract proposals, but Wrigley Field still seems to be the most likely destination for Burnitz. The Diamondbacks are considering getting back into the race, but it may be too late for them. Feb. 1 - 4:56 am et Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NO!!MARY!!! Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I now read in Phil Rogers that it might be Magglio Ordonez. He says that they are going to meet with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backman Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 most likely it will be jeremy burnitz. i dont think the cubs are stupid enough to give maggs the money and years he's asking for, huff would have to be a trade and i dont know who they give tampa. burnitz woiuld be perfect for them (sox fan point of veiw) swing and a miss!

EvilJester99 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 If its Burnitz then the Scrubs won't be missing out on the K's Shammy use to give them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I was listening to ESPN 1000 this morning and they were mentioning how the Scrubs want Huff but the Devil Rays are saying any package for him has to start with Carlos Zambrano....Take it FWIW.

Garbage. That was the early speculation, that TB would want a major league player in return and of course they would want pitching. They're not getting Huff.

Jabroni Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Garbage. That was the early speculation, that TB would want a major league player in return and of course they would want pitching. They're not getting Huff. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep, their not getting Huff. Their outfield should look like this on opening day: LF - Jerry Hairston / Todd Hollandsworth CF - Corey Patterson RF - Jeromy Burnitz :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I have a feeling both sides really, really want it to be Maggs and they're really struggling to make it work somehow. Never count Hendry out. Maggs might settle for a 1 year deal with the Cubs. Think about it, would you rather showcase with the Cubs for one year or be tied down to the Tigers for 5? andProbably Burnitz, but I won't be shocked if it's Maggs.

LosMediasBlancas Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 That would be foolish on Magg's part. He's going to blend into oblivion on the Tigers. He already passed up a good deal from us, what's one more? If he's really healthy, the loot will be there in 06. QUOTE(Leonard Zelig @ Feb 1, 2005 -> 04:41 PM) Did you forget who Maggs' agent is?
