I'd think Ross and the Cubs have already kinda learned a lot about the transition involved for Suzuki, and they already have Toy available for translation.  No draft-pick lost.  It just makes so much sense.  But as deeg noted, it all depends on how the Cubs scout him. 

I admit I'm something of a believer in

It just seems like a very Cub move.  It fits their recent history.

I don’t know what the Cubs scouting on Senga says, obviously.  Based strictly on my amateur’s eye, if the number is close to what’s being bandied about (5/$75) I’d be in favor.  I think there’s a better chance he overperforms that than the opposite, and even if he crashes out it’s not a franchise-crippling deal.
