TKK Signed!

CubsBall2202 — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 23:20:59 -0000

Dave Kaplan is reporting TKK have been signed, numbers and years have yet to be reported. Press conference scheduled for Thursday at 2:00 PM. Very exciting news, wonder if this means somebody has been traded to clear space from the tagging room issue (Sopel?) I'd expect more to be reported later today. Great to see management lock up the core of this team for the time being instead of waiting until the summer.

Report: Astros offer Prior Contract

Apparently the Astros have made an offer to Prior: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3158954 I don't know about anyone else but this could be very scary if Prior ever returns to form especially in the NL Central. Has anyone heard anything on possible return dates for Prior next year with his injury at all and if all goes according to plan when he can return?

This is quite interesting. They did something like this at Fenway last year for 2 nights, just taking up center field. I would definetely be excited about this and seems like it would be a good atmosphere. Thoughts?
