In reality, I really DO wonder if Theo would go after both CC and Fielder, and if he could actually sign them both. The Cubs would have to pay a lot extra for all the fabric that will go into making their uniforms, but...it'd be worth it.

You don't realize how scared this post made me. If CC goes to the Cubs that's not as bad as what I was thinking about Fielder and CC going to the Sox. Okay, we all know that the Yankees aren't gonna let CC get away without a Plan B. So, I say they go hard after CJ Wilson, and make a trade. I know that I don't wanna empty out our farm system but if CC goes we might need to. Hughes can not be trusted. And neither can Burnett.

And Nova........ well don't get me wrong I really do love the guy, but it was his first year. You remember another rookie that had a really good year by the name of Joba Chamberlain? Now , I am not saying that Nova is gonna end up like that. God, I hope not.

It's simple we're gonna need a number 1 and if CC goes I am afraid we are gonna need to empty our farm to get him. Or they could just take their chances with CJ Wilson being their number 1 if CC leaves.

It COULD happen, I mean, if Theo Epstein finally does go to the Cubs, he's going to want to make an impact fast, make a "splash", because of the pressure and expectations.

I know I think you got confused. What scared me was the fact that CC and Fielder could go to the Red Sox. I mean if the Cubs get CC and Fielder good for them. We would survive especially since they aren't in the same league. It's much scarier if CC and Fielder went to the Sox. Now if CC went to the Cubs it's easier for us we'll find a replacement somehow if CC goes to the Cubs.
