Good. Let's let the rest of the league trade themselves to death

That package should get you Carrasco. Maybe Gray.

 

WTF.

[TruffleShuffle]

there are times when a pretty good player is traded for a relatively weak prospect return, and my reaction is "damn, the cubs really should have beaten that deal."

 

this is not one of those times.

[rawaction]

Wait, they traded the #1 pick of the most recent draft? This is about the equivalent of the Cubs trade Castro, Bryant, and Edwards 2 years ago,

That package should get you Carrasco. Maybe Gray.

 

WTF.

 

 

Seriously.

LaRussa must be drinking again

Diamondbacks also get Gabe Speier in the trade.

I read somewhere on Twitter that the Braves were asking for names like Bryant in exchange for Miller so this doesn't surprise me.

So AZ cans one shitty GM, brings in another.

[UMFan83]

Now I'm mad the Cubs didn't get more for shark :lol:

That changes everything. Sorry for doubting you, Dave Stewart.

Human hot potato. Been traded three times in the last 5 months.

If my math is correct, Heyward's value on the open market is like 100 billion dollars

If there's a legit reason to bash Theo, its why hasn't he became best friends with Stewart.

[TruffleShuffle]

i'd be [expletive] irate if the cardinals had held on to miller for 2015 and then dealt him for that kind of package.

[Guest]

Enciarte had a 5.3 bWAR last year (heavy on the defense) and a 3.3 fWAR. Miller was 3.6 bWAR and 3.4 fWAR.

[minnesotacubsfan]

Yea, but, pitchers

[davell]

They're out on Leaks now apparently, who I'd have much rather just given money to instead of even a normal trade for Miller.

 

Wonder if we can send them Mendy for Archie Bradley?

[SRQCub]

I doubt Swanson ever becomes an above average Major Leaguer, but including him with Inciarte was just far too much.

 

I just have no idea what Arizona is trying to do. Was keeping AJ Pollack really that important?

if that's what one year of heyward gets you, then let's just sign him for 2 years and $100 million and then trade him next offseason.
