» Cubs Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Two main factors played into the recent flurry of moves made by Cubs general manager Jim Hendry: money, and the wish of Hendry and manager Lou Piniella to have more left-handed bats in their lineup.

In transactions that were directly related, the Cubs signed free agent infielder/outfielder Aaron Miles, formerly of the Cardinals, and traded infielder/outfielder Mark DeRosa to the Indians for three pitching prospects.

If the Cubs were going to get more left-handed, DeRosa was their only option to trade. First baseman Derrek Lee, third baseman Aramis Ramirez and left fielder Alfonso Soriano all have no-trade clauses in their contracts, and Hendry had no appetite to trade any of them in the first place.
