Cubs still studying Milton Bradley-to-Rays deal?

Cubs general manager Jim Hendry had hoped to trade Milton Bradley at least a couple of weeks ago. But the Bradley situation continues to hang over the Cubs with the winter meetings approaching, and Hendry may be getting anxious to make Bradley disappear.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports today that the Cubs are studying a deal that has been on the table for weeks: trading Bradley and cash to the Tampa Bay Rays for Pat Burrell, whom they would try to move elsewhere (perhaps to the Mets for Luis Castillo).

The Cubs don't seem to have a spot for the defensively challenged Burrell with Alfonso Soriano in left field.
