Ryan Dempster Speaks! and Monday Dempster Rumors

913

Wittenmyer talked to Dempster about the trade that didn't happen. Highlights: 1. Rejecting the trade had nothing to do with his divorce 2. He did not demand an extension from the Braves 3. He has a house in Phoenix, so would prefer to play somewhere that has spring training there. 4. Woke up from a nap last Monday to hear he was traded, felt he needed more time to think it over. 5. He was pissed at the front office for wanting a quick answer after "all he's done for the Cubs".
