       Carrie Muskat says tickets to the 2017 Cubs Convention are not
       yet available.  Would "ZOO" be a good way to describe what that
       will be like?

       Rich Hill would be an upgrade.

       I forgot about him.  His market will be interesting, I've heard
       rumors that he could get 2-3 years at 20+million or much lower.

       Rich Hill looks dominant when he's healthy.  He also looks like
       he's made of glass.  I wouldn't be the one giving him 3 years @
       20.

       2/$30 or so is interesting.  Anything above that is too much
       riverboat gambling for me.

       Edinson Volquez is officially a FA - no qualifying offer.  Might
       be an interesting buy-low candidate - there's certainly no
       precipitous decline in his velocity yet, and he was pretty good
       in 14-15.  At 33 he might be willing to take a shorter deal, or
       even a 1-year to try and improve his value.

       I'm curious to see if cubs add a fifth guy with upside.  Cubs
       brass have done an excellent job of identifying guys that give
       Bosio something to work with, and Bosio has done an excellent
       job coaching them up. Of course, that guy probably already in
       the organization in Montgomery, but it'll be interesting to see
       who to they acquire nonetheless.

       Gotta re-sign Chapman.
       I can understand letting Fowler and Hammel go but not AC.
       I suspect that we will keep him.

       At two years for $30M total, I would get on that riverboat.  A
       two years for $30M a year (which is what 2/$30 is), I hope the
       Cubs watch from the riverbank.

       Chapman or Jansen is fine with me.  Jansen better except for the
       qualifying offer.  Of course, who knows what the new CBA will
       portend.
