Lot of Ex-Cubs on this list here. I'm still of the mind to get a buy-low bid in on Nelson Cruz for 2-3 yr. deal to see if the kids coming up will work out or not and to have some guaranteed run production if he doesn't get canned for PEDs. I don't think there are any starters here worth going after, nor is there any bullpen help that will come over on the cheap. What do you all think? Anyone worth a flyer? I'm betting that 50% of these guys will require a big league deal.
