More Purging

Today the Cubs purged more junk off the roster by sending Craig Monroe to the Twins for the infamous ptbnl. Unfortunately C-MO couldn't get his hitting back after the Cubs acquired him late in the year and with the salary he is about to command in arbitration, it was a no brainer that the Cubs weren't keeping him. I am betting the Twins will try to sign him, but won't go to arbitration with him. If that is the case, then I expect the prospect the Cubs acquire won't be much of one, but it is still better than having C-MO around.
