CardsJimEdmonds15 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Cubs trade Hollandsworth to Braves for a couple minor leaguers. All I know right now. :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Maybe the Cubs will actually call up and play Murton now. He SHOULD play in left for them everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accord Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I can't stand Hollandsworthless, he'll probably kill us now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Too bad this didn't happen a few days ago. :plain 921419[/snapback] I was thinking the same thing when I heard about it. I wonder if his success will continue in the 6 out of 9 games we have against Atlanta to finish the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 outstanding pickup by the Braves 921476[/snapback] :lol Your quite the jokester Ramp!! Or do you mean that in the way that it's good they picked up a veteran that can't hit, run, or field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSwift25 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 outstanding pickup by the Braves 921476[/snapback] Just a simple question: why? He won't upgrade Francoeur or Johnson or Jones in the outfield. He isn't a better pinch hitting option than Langerhans or Betemit or LaRoche. To me, this is simply a depth move, but I don't view it as "outstanding." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMarlinsWinThe Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I think they did it for a vet presence down the stretch... the only position players they have above 30 are Chipper, Julio Franco, Perez (DL.. probably done for year), Brian Jordan (DL.. probably done for year) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirspud Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Being a part-time Cub fan, except for when they play us, I can tell you that Hollandsworth is doing pretty much awful. In fact, the baserunning play against us was probably his only good play in a month play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
