Cubs Trade Rob Bowen and Jerry Blevins for Jason Kendall

[nilodnayr]

Now a Cub. NOOOOOOOOO

 

Wow -- for Bowen and cash! Ugh -- hope he recovers his past ability to get on base.

 

We better be getting cash....

 

ESPN just reported it on the broadcast

 

 

NO BLEVINS!!!!!!

[Mizzou]

Kendall for Bowen and Jerry Blevins

[CoolHandLuke]

At least all we gave up was Bowen. Let's hope he remembers how to hit.

 

-Blevins too I guess

I figured that Bowen's DFA was a roster clearer.

[Keener98]

I hope Hendry trades for him.

 

He just did wow

[Guest]

BLEVINS!?!??!?! AWFUL. SCREW YOU HENDRY.

[Jon]

There's no way the Cubs are getting enough money to make this worth it.

[USSoccer]

OH MY GOD JIM HENDRY YOU ARE SO STUPID.

[USSoccer]

OH MY GOD JIM HENDRY YOU ARE SO STUPID.

[Mephistopheles]

Yay a 46 OPS+

[da bears]

I think the worst part is Hendry is excited about this deal.

Blevins is the more important piece of that trade. Sadly, it will be reported as Bowen and minor leaguer.

BLEVINS!?!??!?! AWFUL. SCREW YOU HENDRY.

 

Are we really getting worked up over a potential LOOGY?

[Bote McBoteface]

Well, I mean, he sucks this year. Typical Cubbie trade. At least we didn't give up anything worthwhile for him. His numbers last season would look nice if he can trick himself into thinking he's still good.

 

How much does he make nowadays?

[Lockes Eye Scar]

wow, [expletive].

[Cubfan_N_nebraska]

I will never make a suggestion again in my life. Wow Me and Hendry on the same page.

[USSoccer]

horrible.

[Exile on Waveland]

Yay a 46 OPS+

 

Ha ha, that's hilarious. 46...

Ewww.

 

I'm not sure I like this.

[imb]

Is this a freaking joke? He has a .542 OPS, this fixes nothing, and unless the A's picked up a ton of money, all this does is hamstring us in the future.

 

Jesus christ why can't the Cubs just let an inexpensive young player fill a freaking role? God dammit.

[Dirt Dog Sparly]

BLEVINS!?!??!?! AWFUL. SCREW YOU HENDRY.

 

QFT

[Bote McBoteface]

Wait, we gave up a minor leaguer in this deal as well?

 

 

Oh my.

[nolanwood]

.261 OBP

 

.281 SLG

 

.542 OPS

[ZFan38]

MLB 's headline has Kendall for Marshall.
