cubs37 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Rumor is that Chicago is looking to tade Mark Prior to the Orioles for Tejada. That's a bad trade in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straw Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Sorry I disagree. Tejada plays everyday and puts up great numbers every year. While Prior has had health problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeuceChunker03 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 No joke... and the Cubs could use a little offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsn03 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I think it would be a good deal for both teams, Prior has shown that he is injury prone, the Cubs might as well get rid of him while they can. And Tejada is one of the top 10 players in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a bad trade in my opinion. after the Rangers the Cubbies are my 2nd favorite team and although Prior has all the makeup im afraid he is just not that durable, and the Cubs have to add some punch. imagine him and Ramirez, D. Lee, Walker, and Barrett that has the maakings of a great infield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubs37 Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 I think you can hold off and eventually trade some prospects for Tejada. Don't give up on Prior yet. He's had two injury seasons and he's just 25. Last year, remember he took a line drive off the elbow which was a good chunk of time. He'll be fine. Now Kerry Wood, maybe. The line up would be great, but pitching wins. They have a good lead off hitter and just signed Jaque Jones from the Twins who has some pop (23 HR) last season. They'll be OK.

cubs37 Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 Leadoff hitter being Juan Pierre from Florida....in case anyone doesn't know. Failed to mention him by name above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jthomp25 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 you have to remember that one of prior's injuries was him taking a line drive off the elbow which is a freak accident.....this is a bad trade for the cubs....prior is going to be back next year and im afraid it is going to be bad news for my cardinals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
