Cubs trade Bremer/Arias for Jacob Turner

[UMFan83]

seems like Arias would be a good guess

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

arias and pugliese?

For those folks asking "why do the Cubs even have to give up anything" - looks like you got your wish.

[Guest]

Heesch & Hermans please.

[ctcf]

Seriously though, what a fantastic pickup. This is about as good as reclamation projects can get.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

There are no two pitchers on the Kane County Cougars that I would prefer to keep over having Jacob Turner. Turner > Blackburn, Underwood (whichever one is which)

 

Derp, forgot about Tseng.

Maybe 10 days ago. But not when you're talking about a guy they don't even want.

Eno Sarris @enosarris

Turner has issues, but so far he’s shown an above-average two-seamer, slider and curve by swinging strikes & grounders. That’s a proven mix.

So who gets knocked off the 25/40 man rosters, you guys?

[sneakypower]

this is really [expletive] exciting

Fangraphs says that right now Turner profiles as a middle reliever:

Sweet so who loses a roster spot?

[Clem Fandango]

Blake Parker. Again. Just because.

It seems to me Vitters is the obvious for the 40 choice barring a Villanueva DFA or trade.

arias and pugliese?

 

That's my guess too if we're only plucking from Kane County's roster.

Someone not as good as Turner.

Dave Cameron is the worst at everything.

 

"Herp, derp, since 2011 for a 23-year-old pitcher."

Bremer is one. I'd be ok with it, but I hope the other one isn't Arias. I like that guy.

The only one I'd really have an issue with is Tseng.

Pitchers Tyler Bremer and Jose Arias go to Marlins for Jacob Turner

So what is the opposite of throwing a parade?

[fallacy]

That's it? Sweet

[thefranchise]

LOL, Turner is younger than both of them
