Hey buddy . I'm not sure what I'm more surprised at. Your comment or the fact that somebody gave you a no trade list. You didn't need to put us on it ,we've got a good enough scouting staff there was no chance of you being here anyway. @Scott_Darling33
None of the Cubs' Big 3 (Javy, Rizzo, KB) are going to end up with nearly as much $ as the supposedly cheap Cubs offered them. All the players got bad advice from their agents and/or overestimated their appeal. The Cubs didn't lowball anybody. They made smart trades last summer.
