BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair. Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown has indicated that the number of UK troops could be scaled down - especially as the security situation in the south of the country continues to improve.

Quotes that mention Jim Hendry
Why in the world would Jim Hendry trade away two valuable players for one bench player. As a corner outfielder, Teahan gives you very little. He is a bench player while Marshall and Fontenot are starters on a lot of teams in this league.

I truly believe that Jim Hendry himself could retire from the Cubs, take a job as an analyst for ESPN, and write about trade suggestions all day every day and he'd come off looking like a tool. It's almost impossible for amateurs like us to not be completely wrong about trade talks.

This organization has been great to me, and Chicago has been great to me. It was good to hear it out of [Jim Hendry's] mouth, honestly. It's rare in this game when you have a general manager who says face to face what's going on.

I think it's only talk ... I really haven't talked to Jim Hendry much at all about our situation. We had a nice conversation at organizational meetings a couple of weeks ago. At that time, we hadn't talked about Peavy. I really learned about Peavy just watching ESPN. We'll see what happens with that. I haven't had any substantive talks with Jim about it.

Wood done as a Cub. A truly awful start to the offseasonf or Jim Hendry. A big strength just became a huge weakness.

I haven't talked to (GM) Jim Hendry too much about our situation. We had a nice conversation two weeks ago at the organizational meetings. There were no specifics. At the time we hadn't talked about Peavy. I've really learned about Peavy on ESPN. Obviously, a very good pitcher, a top of the rotation pitcher. As far as myself I haven't had substantiative talks with Jim about it.

Quotes from articles that mention Jim Hendry
Maybe we underestimated how prepared you have to be and how ready you have to be, especially in a five-game series. It's like a short heavyweight bout _ ding, ding the bell is ringing and you got to go
said Ryan Dempster

It was imperative that we kept him in house ... No doubt in our minds that Ryan would have exceeded this deal on the streets in three or four weeks from now, the way the market is for starting pitching. Ryan was committed. From Day One he told us he wanted to stay. And it was a priority for us to try and get it done before we got too far down the road in the winter.

When we were going to give him a chance to make the rotation, there wasn't any doubt in his mind, not only was he going to make it, but win at a high level

He's still got five or six good years in him ... You win a lot of baseball games with this guy on your ballclub.
