Jimenez4MVP Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Hmmm, we dont really need a set up man because Politte has been outstanding, so I dont see why we would be needing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KW is smoking the wacky weed if this is the case. The only way this would work out is if AJ and Coop are sure they can return this guy back to what he was with Minny.

maggsmaggs Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Imagine if we got him and he pitched well. that would be the worst for Cub fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubs Suck23 Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 Hawkins has pitched very good lately.. He is alot better than Shingo. I wonder who the middle prospect might be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimenez4MVP Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Please, no, don't!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why cause hes a former Cub and Twin? Everyone is screaming no when Hawkins is a very good reliever that could help our team. As long as he is not in the closers role, he will help our team out, lookin at his stats prove that. We dont need him to close, but he is lights out as a set up man.. 7- Politte 8- Hawkins 9- Hermanson That looks real good to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YASNY Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Thinking in terms of only the 25 man roster, Hawkins is an upgrade over Shingo. A mid-level prospect being all it costs to upgrade, I'd pull the trigger on that deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sox-r-us Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I hope we do this.....the guy was a beast when pitching in the 7th and 8th innings....I remember our team not being able to do anything against him all these years He is definitely better than Shingo and would help a lot in the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Shingo and Chris Stewart for Hawkins. Anything more, no way. No Owens, Sweeney or any good prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The psycho pitcher tackling 100mph farnsworth is having a great year once he left that cancerous team known as the flubs. Maybe its about the team.
