Roberts to Cubs update

[big leagues 23]

So, when do we plan on things happening again? Do we spend all day tomorrow checking for information or just find something else to talk about?

Lol The trades are really the only thing about the O's I want to talk about.

You either check or you don't check.
Something will eventually happen or it won't.

I'm feeling very Zen tonight.

I know im the new guy, but sometimes a little new blood brings some prespective.

All insiders are, when it boils down to it, are people that have another information source. They know only what information that is released to then, and then pass on only what will keep them from upsetting their source.

As far as lack of news or stumbling points, there are a couple of factors that need to be taken into account. After the Arod fiasco does anyone expect any team to release non time senstive iformation the day MLB release important news? The initial backlash from the Arod incident should be enough to scare everyone away from that. Secondly, as close as deals can get, they can sometimes be upset by better offers, the notification players, the submiting of the paper work for approval to the mlb main office, or a current example, the delay in medical reports (which fortunately/unfortunately cost the Braves Beau Jones in the Texas deal because of Harrison's shoulder MRI's).

These trades will happen, there is no reason why they wont. Use a little patience and be thankful to your insiders for posting information that without them, you would be just like the rest of the general public.

JoeyR5 posted in the "Nothing close" thread that the trade has been completed for Gallagher, Marshall and Cedeno, paperwork is in the MLB offices and just needs to be approved. Looks like we will finally see some action tomorrow!

I'm not criticizing JoeyR5 because he may very well be legit, but do we have any evidence that he is actually for real? The only reason I say this is because there are fake insiders all over the Cubs board.

Once again JoeyR5, no offense. I've just been fooled before so I am extra cautious.

I think the fact he is still here and posting would confirm he's legit, otherwise the Admins would have kicked him. Plus he's been able to confirm with our insiders via PM...

Well, he says he confirmed with them, but have any of the OH insiders actually said anything about it? Also, how would the admins know he's not for real?
