While the Cubs were being beaten to/rescued from Troy Percival yesterday, other options were busy presenting themselves:
Shortly after hearing the news on Percival...Hendry got an unexpected overture from free agent Matt Mantei, who made a sales pitch for a one-year deal...Though the Cubs must do their homework on Mantei, Hendry was impressed with [his] character and pitching tools.
*sigh*
Perhaps, like last season's cornering of the market on exceptionally crappy middle infielders, the Cubs are looking to wrap up every reliever with closing experience who also comes with a history of shoulder problems.
