SCORE is talking to Steve Stone;

 

Here it is, Stone's friend talked to Barrett moments ago and he is leaving. Barrett is a FA.

 

Speculation Stone says they had to be getting Bard or Bowen...

Bard's numbers are certainly down across the board this season, and Kevin Towers may be regretting that deal he gave him in the off-season (think it was a 3 year deal).

 

So maybe Barrett for Bard and a fringe bullpen arm from the Pads? They're pretty full with relievers ATM.

Is Bard 29?

KENNY yooohooooo kenny williams.

 

No kidding. It seemed like last year you would have to kill Towers to get Linebrink and he gives him up for Barrett? Unreal.

Linebrink? WTF?????? Padres over paid!

 

If its true, Cubs for sure got the best of the deal. Linebrink for Barrett? Padres could have gotten more for Linebrink.

Wouldn't surprise me....if there's one thing Hendry knows how to do, it's to get a lot of value for his players via trade.

Linebrink makes way above minimum. You can't have that in the bullpen. Eric Patterson is supposed to be a decent prospect.

 

Linebrink is nothing special....he greatly benefits from pitching in that park. The Cubs now have 5 good righty relievers in Dempster, Marmol, Linebrink, Wuertz, and Howry. However, not having a solid everday catcher will hurt them.
