Id only move Josh Vitters if Peavy was involved. Jay Jackson or Andrew Cashner if we could get an impact bat like Holliday. Anyone else in the minors, Id be willing to part with. Problem is, we dont have much else of interest.

 

Why do you think Cashner is so good? He's not. It's ridiculous to act like he would be some kind of key piece when trading for a big bat

He really has regained that 1st round luster with his performance in Daytona this year. He isn't anything special but he definitely has a decent amount of value and will likely be once again in the Cubs top 5 prospects. I don't know if he would be a large enough prospect to be a centerpiece for a player like Holliday (because of his control) , but it isn't an absurd notion either (because of his stuff and success in high A).

I'm curious about whether the Cubs see Cashner as a starter or reliever. He has a great 1-2 punch with his slider and fastball, but if he can develop a third pitch while maintaining his stuff later in games, he'd be the second best prospect in this organization and a Top 50 prospect. We should get a better picture of things by the end of this season.

hmm. i guess his minor league numbers are better than i thought this season, which is weird considering i check the boxes every day. still though, i want to see him dominating at at least tenn before i get excited. his overall numbers are still pretty unexciting at this point. if he's gonna walk that many guys i want to see him missing a lot more bats than he is.
