Along the Warning Track (11/21/2004–11/27/2004)
A look at what other blogs are saying:
- The Cubs are increasing their ticket prices once again, including increasing the number of “prime dates". TheCubdom.com has the breakdown. 1060West says, “simple economics tells you the increase is the right decision.”
- Is it true? Is Milwaukee’s signing of Damian Miller (assuming he passes the physical) actually a good deal, as asserted by ‘Studes’ at The Hardball Times? Brewers blog Al’s Ramblings thinks so. Both the Dodgers and Red Sox–two teams with astute GMs–were also after him. Or is Miller just another add-on to a trivia question?
- The three bloggers of the The Cub Reporter answered five questions on Sammy Sosa for Mets blogger Jeremy Heit.
- At The Cub Reporter itself, Derek Smart continued his “Assuming the Position” series with shortstop.
- Byron Clarke at TheCubdom.com thinks the Cubs might shy away from a Carlos Beltran deal after coming oh-so-close to making the Mike Hampton mistake.
- Finally, 1060west looks at a few of the Cubs’ pitching prospects that have been left unprotected from the upcoming Rule V draft, stemming from this Rotoworld article. Perhaps surprisingly, 6′9″ lefty Andy Sisco is one of them.
