Probably because Darwin Barney is on the block, and we need someone to play second base should he be moved.

I still think we end up shopping Barney along with Marmol.. Someone like Jedd Gyorko could be a nice piece to develop and have in the lineup sometime next season. Originally Posted by 1972 Cubs

That just makes him a cheaper get. In addition, part of Sveum's job description is probably keeping guys like Escobar in check. Originally Posted by utkcub

I'll take him. He's a good player and better then most of the scrubs we have had on our team.

I'd take him at 3rd, but not before I offer Reynolds a cheap one year incentive laden deal

I turned off sigs a long time back. PSD has enough issues as it is, plus most sigs are pretty juvenile and/or moronic. Site seems to work a little better with them off.
