What would be the next deal?

[Backtobanks]

Assuming the offer of Gallagher, Cedeno, Veal, and Ceda for Roberts happens, I would think there would be another deal (or 2) that would have to be made. Obviously, the Cubs would still need at least a backup CF and a loogy. If the deal is expanded to include Payton (and Marquis?), then you would certainly have to deal Murton someplace. As much as I like DeRosa, I loved the idea posted awhile back of DeRosa plus Dempster for Burnett. With Cintron, Patterson, and Payton, I would think DeRosa is expendable. Possibly one of those West Coast teams in need of a 3B would consider DeRosa. He's miles ahead of Inge and a better bet than a recovering Crede.

what, the other thread you made about this isn't good enough?

I assume by the other thread, you mean "The Infamous 2nd Trade" thread. That thread was basically asking what the original two trades were and what happened to the second trade. I am assuming the 2nd deal (whatever it was) is dead. This post is wondering what moves will happen as a result of the Roberts deal.

So you just wanted to create a new thread about the same subject for no good reason?

Let's just do this in the "2nd trade" thread.
