Dick Allen Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 17, 2010 -> 03:06 PM) Any idea what kind of terms? I would imagine nothing more than a couple million guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 jcrasnick The Giants and Cubs discussed a Rowand-for-Fukudome trade, said a BB source. A classic bad-contract, change-of-scenery deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote4Pedro Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Dont know if this has been posted yet but the San Diego Padres signed Orlando Hudson to a 2 year deal. On a more important note the twins just keep losing players.....crain, guerrier, hudson, the list could still grow....if i was a twins fan I def would be a little worried. Do they really think their minor league can fill those voids? I mean i never say never because they are the twins but they are definately hurting this offseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he is going to step in and be an all-star, but for 2b or SS they'll be using him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand's slash line the last three years: .257/.318/.405/.723. Declining defense across the board. 2004/2005 was a long time ago. Nobody misses Rowand outside of nostalgia sentiment.

I certainly don't miss Rowand and I don't even really hate the Cubs that much but there's something about seeing ARow in a Cubs uni that would irk me a bit.

Hard to laugh at Hendry for this one considering we were right there offering the same contract basically. Just got lucky Fukudome wanted to play for a team that had never had a Japanese player before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
