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

[David]

 

She didn't say it was still a possibility. She said there were conflicting reports.

 

Eh, I don't remember seeing another one with Soler attached, other than hers to begin with.

 

Ok. There's also been rumors about Warren and Candelario that have been shot down. Plenty of crazy rumors out there. I just think she gets a lot of unfair criticism.

 

The NY Post gets criticism too.

A lot of the criticism she gets is unfair, but that doesn't change the fact that she's objectively bad.

 

100% this.

Uh, ok. Not really relevant, but neat.

I feel horrible about some of the stuff she has to take on Twitter. No one should have to put up with that. But I don't think she does much past piggyback others info, when it comes to breaking stuff.

The Warren and Candelario nonsense came from the Post.

Rosenthal just said "maybe" on Warren.

 

We don't know enough about any of this to criticize any reporting, imo.

let's get to what's really important: has anyone seen Clayton Richard giving out hugs/crying?

I'll feel at least slightly better if we get some other stuff out of this.

Yes. And her takes are bad on the radio too. I don't think I'm being unfair here. I criticize most of those radio people for their shitty takes. Kaplan, Rozner, Abbatacola, DiCaro, whoever.

Much more meaning the Yankees are giving up more?

 

Speculate on potential big league names?

 

Eovaldi, Beltran, Ellsbury, Gardner are the most likely right?

Blind squirrel, meet nut. Educated guesses can easily come true in these situations. That possibility doesn't take a lot of dot connecting.

I still wonder if this will include MIller. It'd make a lot more sense with some of the names being thrown around.

Surely not. But holy horsefeathers, it'd make this a lot more palatable.

I do think she has some bad sports opinions. But since she's not a beat writer, I don't really think of what she tweets as much more than twitter rumor fodder. I'm not arguing that she's Rosenthal or Heyman. But I don't think she should be held to that standard either.

 

I hold her to the standard I'd hold any Cubs blogger that claims to have sources.

My suspicion is Hank isn't going to OK it.

Cubs trade Rizzo and Torres for the rights to the Yankees 1999 World Series Championship. Chapman is a toss-in to offset some salary.

 

Theo said, "losing Rizzo hurts, obviously. But now that we've already broken the curse, I feel much better about our odds this October."

But is Jeimer? :-k

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