The fact that they outright claimed Alex Rios up off waivers a couple of years ago, tells me that they aren't exactly the most finacially prudent team in the world.

The only thing that makes me think that he wouldn't end up in Chicago is Kenny Williams. He seems like he could be very difficult to deal with.

Maybe the Cubbies will make a splash.

I'm pretty sure Kenny Williams put the claim in there as expections to block the move or negotiate a deal. Not just be given Rios and his contract and be told 'Have a Nice Day.'

While not really thrilled about Quade as Manager of the clubbers, I doubt they make a change there yet. But then if they bring Theo over (mistake), then a good possibility.
