The Legend. Here?

K. So you've all probably discussed this a bazillion times, and if there's already a poll up about this then I'll remove it, but I'm curious now that Torii is outta the picture.

Should Kenny shell out the cash to get Rowand? He'll likely cost less than what Torii got, and probably around what Kenny offered for Torii (5/75). Is that reasonable?

Would any of you take Rowand back for anything less than 15 million a year? What's your cutoff point? Do you guys want Rowand back at all? Or who would you rather want? Fukodome? Both Fukodome and Rowand?

So... the question remains... Rowand or no?

Just so we're clear, I want the Legend back here. Real bad. Like there's an itch that only Rowand can scratch.

Update [2007-11-28 10:28:21 by Shoeless In SC]: Well, apparently Rowand won't be coming here so this journal is basically useless. Blast it all to hell! Just when I was getting my hopes up again...

Rowand says no

Yes
I wouldn't mind Rowand back just so I could get a good cry in during his ten minute standing ovation on opening day. And no, I'm not being sarcastic.

He's just as likely as not
to revert back to his even-year sucktastic ways.  So give me lots of OBP and gap power.
OK, bring on the Craigslist chick! Bathe her and bring her to my tent! And keep the Valtrex coming!

You refer to Fukodome?
Personally, if Kenny wanted to break the bank I think he'd sign Rowand and Fukodome, trade Crede, and put Fields at 3B.

Talk about a sick lineup that defensively wouldn't hurt. Except for that fat ass in RF.

And Fields at 3B
Only Ryan Braun and Garrett Atkins were worse, I believe.

Fat Ass
I think if they sign both the fat ass (assuming you mean JD) would be in LF.    
I'd rather have a sister in a whore house than a brother that is a Cub fan

True...
But Rowand and Fukodome in the OF would be pretty darn good defensively.

Fields at 3B and Dye in LF, as you speculate, wouldn't be great. I guess it could be worse though.
