Trade deadline target

[Jason Ross]

I'd love the Cubs to get someone good, but the names the Cubs can probably get now are the names that Jon Morosi mentioned: Bailey Ober. 

And the best thing I can say about Bailey Ober and his 88mph fastball is that I guess he has no torn meniscuses right now. 

It's almost assuredly a "wait until teams actually want to sell" situation for a bit.

Regardless of how bad they are right now, I don’t see a way the Mets dump now. Too much money invested. He isn’t going anywhere. And if the Mets are within 5 or 6 games of the WC at the TDL, I doubt they deal him.

The Mets aren't going to spend what they did and sell in May.

@Rcal10@Jason Ross I agree that it won't happen now, but come July that's a very intriguing name IMO.  Controllable thru next season and he gets paid less AAV than Boyd.  Pretty much a cost controlled Boyd replacement for next season too.

I think it is a players option for next year. So I would guess he would elect to be a FA if he pitches well.

Good catch on the player option, didn't realize that.
