jackie hayes Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2007 -> 09:00 PM) Rich Hill Could easily be the Cubs' 2nd best pitcher this year, but gets routinely ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could replace the phrase "world's tallest midget" but as I posted above, he does look like he has a chance to be good... I still stick by my point that going into the season, NL or not, having Lily as your #2 on paper (obviously with Prior a question mark) is not the greatest situation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of the rest may be, depends. Hill's a k machine, and I'm more of a Lilly fan than most. The Marquis signing was a joke, though. Obviously it is "not the greatest situation", but I'd question the Marquis vs Schmidt signing more than the rookie vs Schmidt signing.

Harry Chappas Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Recievers don't really take the beating that linemen do. My thoughts are that this is a cub PR move and he will take the guaranteed money of the NFL. This deal allows him the latitude of dealing with organizations that will take a risk and spend money ala Bo Jackson and John Elway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarlinFan84 Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Arent signing bonuses the only guranteed money in the NFL? And I doubt he would of gotten anything near that high from any NFL team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This deal allows him the latitude of dealing with organizations that will take a risk and spend money ala Bo Jackson and John Elway. Pitchers dont really take the beating that receivers do either. And if he goes to the NFL before his deal is up, he'd likely have to return almost all of the money he has been given by the Cubs back to the organization. He likely isn't going to play two sports, and he's not just going to steal $8 million from the Cubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
