Cubs add Chapman for Torres, et al. imb wishes we paid more

[davell]

A 4 for 1 would be vomit inducing.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Call me crazy, but I kind of hope we're getting Chad Green in addition to Chapman.

I'm leaning toward thinking it's an old outfielder

[UMFan83]

2 other guys besides Warren and Torres? They better be organizational filler or the Yankees are giving us something back.

Thank God the Yankees are idiots, at least.

I'd lose my horsefeathers if they traded Eloy. I love him so.

This just does not feel like a Theo-Jed move at all.

[Post Count Padder]

Sharma and Sherman saying it's 4 for 1 with no extension. I'd be so damn furious

[BrockLanders]

Trading Eloy would have been so unbelievably disheartening. Good lord, I'm getting emotional just thinking about it.

[UMFan83]

A 4 for 1 deal that includes our #1 prospect for a 2 month rental reliever (albeit an elite one).

 

Theo is going all Boston era on us after making a Cubs era Theo deal in getting Montgomery.

 

Not happy at all. They deserve our trust but after all the stuff about not mortgaging the future for any one season, this seems like a real odd move.

They're not trading Eloy.

Probably cause it's not. The talking heads are all over the place and have no clue.

I'm going to try really hard to convince myself that it is a 5-3 deal where we get Chapman, Montgomery and Matusz in return.

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

At this point I am totally okay with this not happening anymore.

He's not our #1 prospect. Not in reality.

I love every second of this. Win mode Theo is the best

They're not really all over the place.

 

They're pretty consistent at this point in that Torres is the main piece and only Chapman is coming back. Also seems like Warren is definitely one of the players.

I'm on the fence but I lean that way. I trust Theo 100% so I'll trust their internal evaluations over anything I can come up with. It'd be different if I felt our FO was at all incompetent.

[Post Count Padder]

Rosenthal now saying it's likely 4 for 1 as well.

 

This isn't reality right? Tell me I'm missing something.

He's in a cluster with 2 others who are pretty close to each other. Fine call him a top 30 prospect

Yeah...reports are pretty focused at this point.
