       Why would the Cubs have any interest in signing Dempster?

       He won't have 10/5 rights anymore?

       Not much point in debating the rebuilding plan.  The Theocracy
       are rather actively following it.
       The only major thing they are NOT doing is being completely open
       about this year and next year being written off, and Sveum's
       performance not at all being judged by the team's W/L record.
       On that issue (though I would like to see it), those pointing
       out that the team still does need to sell tickets are probably
       thinking much the same as Theo is.

       Yes, there's no middle ground here at all - you must either
       think he's a great player or hate him.

       Darwin Barney is baseball's Chick-fil-A!

       Darwin Barney is not a great player.  He IS an EXTREMELY good
       defensive player, and is becoming a more than adequate offensive
       player.
       Personally, I would prefer Rogers Hornsby in his prime.  But
       until Baez or someone like him fulfills his promise, we are
       certainly not suffering with Barney out there.

       This may have been mentioned, but if so, I missed it.  Do we
       know how much, if any of Dempster's salary we paid?  For that
       matter, do we know if we paid any salary of the others we
       traded?
