NOMAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!Saturday, July 31, 2004Nomar to the Cubs is worth a win flag. OK, here is the trade, as I wrote down what Jim Hendry said at the News Conference, (I'm no reporter, and this is coming from memory, so bear with me since the facts are 1st Trade Cubs with Montreal Expos Cubs trade Alex Gonzalez, AAA prospect Francis Beltran, and AAA prospect Brendan Harris to the Expos for Orlando Cabrera. 2nd Trade: Cubs with Red Sox The Cubs send Orlando Cabrera and minor league A prospect Justin Jones to the Red Sox for Nomar Garciaparra, minor league prospect Matt Murton (OF) and 'cash considerations,' 3rd trade: Red Sox with Minnesota Twins The Red Sox send pitching prospect Justin Jones to the Minnesota Twins for Doug Mientkiewicz The Sum of it All:
The Cubs lost to Philly 4-3 before the Nomar trade. I was sleeping after a long night of apartment moving prep... I might comment on this later, but probably not. The Cubs took the opener from the Phillies 10-8. Mark Prior pitched poorly, but Aramis Ramirez hit three (3) home runs... this game was eerily reminiscient of the 'Pujols Game' when Albert hit 3 dongs to sink the Cubs. In the final game of the series against Milwaukee, The Cubs pitchers racked up their 4th shutout of the season behind an excellent Carlos Zambrano start. Posted by Byron at July 31, 2004 4:01 PM | |
