rare 1869 baseball card that turned up featuring the Cincinnati Red Stockings.

Should the Cubs go after Jake Peavy?

Peavy said he would waive his no trade clause for the following teams: Atlanta Braves , St. Louis Cardinals, the Chicago Cubs, the Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros. I kow Peavy is a bit of a hot head, and he does have some injury history....but he's certainly in the top 10 pitchers in baseball. Thoughts? Which current starter would you bump from the rotation?

No word yet on where it will be placed.

Even though Ernie already has a flag, I think this an honor that is well deserved and a great idea.
