it's O'hearn and Laureano, that's going to bring back a good prospect.

Obviously an hour and a half left , but as of now the Cubs are probably the loser off this deadline . Getting Houser and Luis Urías  won’t make much of a difference .

Interesting, but he's been kind of meh this year? Guess they believe he'll come back around.

He told the Astros he kept his trash can lid.

Oh nice we still got an hour and a half. I thought it ended at 4pm CT

[Dfan25]

Preller is going to Preller .

[BKHoo]

The Astros farm system is so weak - how are they doing this? 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Cubs are banking hard on Jamo and Assad coming back and staying healthy. Theres your big deadline additions to the rotation.

[Tryptamine]

Rangers are getting Danny Coulombe

The Stros and the Padres are DEALIN'.....man alive

[Stratos]

Maybe we can resign Brujan

[s2obed]

A lot of movement by Astros, Mets, Padres, and Yanks wow. 

[PeanutPunch33]

It'll be pandemonium on here if the Cubs don't make another significant move or two

I think Jason explained why Horton could be in a Gore deal perfectly several pages ago. If Horton can only give the Cubs maybe 30 innings the rest of this year, as an example, he could make sense being traded for Gore. 

Jebus, that would be kinda seismic IMO....I love Horton but I do understand what Jason is saying too. Fact is you have to give to get....Glad I don't have to make that decision.

Brewers don't have to make deals since they apparently acquired Miguel Cabrera in his prime for a guy who got dropped from their rotation.

It gives the appearance that these orgs care more about winning than the Cubs front office does
