He certainly won't cost as much as the O's are asking for Bedard, and he should grow into a solid number 2. If we can get Blanton, the top 4 in the Cub's rotation would be pretty darn good.Larry Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09135187262149904923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37440895.post-22998510981255535442007-12-15T18:32:00.000-06:002007-12-15T18:32:00.000-06:00Thank you.

If not I would rather get the great half season out of Marquis... who has always done well in the first half... and then maybe look for reinforcements at the July deadline.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00909889581099318748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37440895.post-48383867291788619032007-12-15T15:28:00.000-06:002007-12-15T15:28:00.000-06:00the cubs would have to give up marmol for him and ...the cubs would have to give up marmol for him and they better not do that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37440895.post-35211310790808103492007-12-15T05:21:00.000-06:002007-12-15T05:21:00.000-06:00Blanton will be a Met.Blanton will be a Met.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
