January 4, 201214 yr Ken Rosenthal is tweeting that the Cubs and Marlins are close to a deal that would send Big Z to the Marlins.
January 5, 201214 yr Very interesting. Cubs are really cleaning house. Yup, had to be done. Theo literally blowing everything up. This year will be painful to watch, but I like the idea he's going with. Just need to get rid of Soriano.
January 5, 201214 yr Cubs are paying all but about 2 million of his salary plus getting Volsted in return.
January 5, 201214 yr I like the deal. Didn't give up anything of any real value and barely have to pay him anything. Ozzie and he are pretty good friends so I think there is a lot of potential there for this to turn out well. But if it doesn't there wasn't really anything lost.
January 5, 201214 yr Hell, I'd pay his salary to be rid of Volstad. It's only for a year. What's that for the deep-pocketed Marlins? :lol:
January 5, 201214 yr Cubs are paying all but about 2 million of his salary plus getting Volsted in return. 2.5

January 5, 201214 yr I predict a dugout fight by the All-star break.Then kick him off and be done. Cost the Marlins nothing. Volstad will get that in arbitration and he is barely a #5 starter. This was a great deal for the Marlins.

He is owed 18 this year and 19.75 next year. Chump change. Next years option won't vest but I don't see how eating 16 Mil is nothing.
January 5, 201214 yr He is owed 18 this year and 19.75 next year. Chump change. Next years option won't vest but I don't see how eating 16 Mil is nothing. Nevermnd. They are paying all but 2 Mil.
January 5, 201214 yr Funny, but no one griped about Zambrano's attitude when he was the Cubs' workhorse. I wasn't ready to give up on him, but dumping that much salary isn't a bad thing.
