Here and There...

Here are some notes for today-

- Ryan Harvy was released yesterday. Another top draft pick released by the Cubs.

- Shark could lose his position in the pen to Angel Guzman says the Tribune. All do respect to Angel and Jeff, Patton and his 0.93 ERA deserves a spot in the pen over you guys. He cannot be optioned to AAA so he should be in the pen, plus he deserves it!

- Another way Patton could make the team is if Gaudin or Vizcanio is traded. I think the Cubs could get another bad contract for Vizcaino or how bout a PTBNL. I am a little more hesitant to trade Gaudin because he gives so much versatility for Lou.

- Little FYI. There is only 38 players on the 40 man roster of right now. Could a trade be in the mix before Opening Day? My senses are screaming YES!

- 11 days until Opening Day!

I agree that Hendry is trying to make a trade to free a spot for Patton.

Here is my sense of how those trade talks are going with EVERY team.

Hendry "How would you feel about trading for some of our excess bullpen arms?"

Other teams "We would be very interested in Gaudin or Guzman."

Hendry "How about Vizcaino (other line goes dead), Hello, hello"
