Maybe cubs will bite because they were wanting Teahen before we got him also. If anyone would have taken him at this point, he'd be gone already. That might change once the FA market dries up, but not likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 QUOTE (bulokis @ Dec 8, 2010 -> 05:20 PM) If we can trade Teahen and use his money for bullpen help. Maybe cubs will bite because they were wanting Teahen before we got him also. When I saw the money Teahen's getting on that list, I couldn't help but think of how nicely that could be spent on relievers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also drives me nuts how poorly designed that billboard is... Reinsdorf has a long and storied habit of presiding over some pretty terrible ad campaigns. I did like the AJ/Buehrle commercial last year though. That was a nice change of pace. And the original grinder rules was innovative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised Boyer went with this, or at worst I'm surprised even in their haste he allowed something that could have been designed by someone with 1 class worth of Photoshop 101 to touch the sky as a billboard.

Yeah, it's pretty brutal. Perhaps they're saving money to go towards payroll but hiring a child to do all signage work for them, not to mention a bizarre choice for the featured players. For anyone that can't see the link here's the billboard: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
