Not if they like Zambrano.

Maybe a new owner looking to make a splash? One problem for the Cubs is A-Rod might not be capable of playing SS much longer.

If they did sign him, they would have unquestionably the best infield ever.

I don't see it happening unless Mark Cuban buys the team and decides to take the payroll to Yankee proportions. And even then it may take something bizarre like A-Rod playing 2B or Ramirez getting traded. [delusional fantasy]Imagine if they dealt Ramirez for Johan(Twins know he's gone), and upped the payroll enough to keep Z and add A-Rod.[/delusional fantasy]

He will play for the league minimum to be re-united with Sweet Lou.

Well he did start wearing the high socks. He's a ballplayer now.

Lou is a very persuasive man.

I really don't think he will opt out. No one else would come close to giving him 27 million per year. His best bet is just to stay there.

Oh, he'll opt out. It's the Boras way.

Doesn't Ramirez have a NTC?
