The Cubs apparently have been talking to the As about Harden for quite a while now, but I suspect the asking price for Harden is going to too high. Billy Beane will want to make out like a bandit as he did when he traded Haren to the D'backs.
Randy Wolf's name has been mentioned by various sources as an option, but I see nothing much good in acquiring him. And Jarrod Washburn? Ditto.
The answer is Greg Maddux. The Cubs never should have traded him in '06.
That trade ranks as the second worst move of the Cubs in the 21st century. The worst was when Steve Stone was deposed as color commentator for the Cubs in '04.
BTW, #$%@ Dusty Baker.
