My sources say other things

Translation: "Milton's trade value is at an all-time low and I'm going to start the PR Express now on the "2009 was an aberration" track before I get killed for trading him for some shithead while at the same time eating 50% of his salary."


Translation: I'm not cutting off the nose to spite the face.

Unless I can do it to good public opinion.
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

Alternate Translation: "I'm keeping him to make ChuckDickens and IrishYeti happy, but most importantly, I'm keeping him to piss of PenFoe."

It would kind of make me happy, too.

I know Milton "has to" go.  But, Christ, I'd rather just keep him than trade him for Luis Castillo.

No, I still hate him and desperately want him gone.  I just think Castillo is even more worthless than Pat Burrell.

"According to Phil Rogers of the Chicago Tribune, the Cubs, Mets and Rangers have discussed a deal that would land Milton Bradley in Texas.
The Mets would send Luis Castillo to the Cubs and cash would be paid to the Rangers. We've heard similar rumors before and the amount of moving parts make it difficult to take too seriously. That said, it does make some sense.

Christ. Why would we want Luis Castillo? I hate that I can't tell if Hendry is just dumping Milton for anyone, or if he truly thinks Luis Castillo is good.

Why would you take anything seriously when it's preceeded by the words "according to Phil Rogers"?

Pardon me while I overindulge into this....

QuoteFox, who was an All-American catcher at Michigan but played third, first and the outfield for the Cubs last season, enjoyed his time in Chicago, even with the most controversial Cub and supposed team pariah, Milton Bradley.

    "He was always really good to me," Fox said of Bradley. "He was a great guy to me. He's got a wonderful family, and he kind of took me under his wing. He was a really good teammate. A lot of the fans didn't like him, and I can understand that. Maybe he put on a different persona or something. But he's always really good to me."

Fuck you Dempster. Fuck everyone. Bam BITCHES.

This should be treated as being no more nor less important than what Urlacher had to say last weekend.

Probably true, but I find myself fistpumping myself in the taint over this.
