06:41 AM ET 11.03 | The Rangers refuse to rule out the possibility of Milton Bradley coming back to Texas. Club officials aren't expecting it to happen but it's something club officials are definitely talking about as they try to figure out a way to repair an offense that scored 115 less runs in 2009 than in 2008. A month ago, it seemed impossible that the Rangers would bring back Bradley. Now there seems some hemming and hawing.

The Cubs will be very reasonable in their demands since the Rangers seem to be the only team interested in Bradley.

No.

Bradley will have a hard time finding a home in MLB with his attitude.

... although, he did well in Arlington without getting too crazy ...

So I'm guessing the Cubs have someone in their farm system that they feel is ready to contribute over a 162-game season. Or maybe Jim is gonna go after a FA or pursue a trade for Bradley's replacement. Don't give him up for nothing, Jim...

I would like to agree with you, but I cannot. As long as this mofo can put a stick on the ball he will find employment.

Wasn't he with the Rangers when he went after a broadcaster?

Bradley is a cancer. He just didnt show it in Texas because things were going his way. Give him time and he will flip out in Texas too. He just needs to hang up the spikes and call it a career.

Reasonable ? how about trade him for a handshake.

November 3, 2009  09:16 AM ET

Terrible idea...

November 3, 2009  09:19 AM ET

Desperation?

YAPP, you are correct. He has yet to play anywhere that he hasn't stirred up trouble!!

November 3, 2009  09:22 AM ET

SUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean this is a wise move by Texas.

November 3, 2009  09:25 AM ET

This is why the Rangers will continue to be a mediocre team. Why bring this nutjob back? He didn't contribute that much when he was here!

November 3, 2009  09:31 AM ET

If Bradley is the answer, I'm afraid of what the question was.

Better yet, they could trade him for a few bats, and a bucket of balls.

This is not surprising at all and would be in the best interests of the Cubs, Rangers, Bradley, MLB and its fans, lol. And I am one who thinks Bradley would return to being a productive hitter.

Another amateur scout in the midst...

Please make the Cubs pay the vast majority of his salary. Don't let them off the hook for that terrible contract.
