I'm hopeful Bregman will come around.  He tends to start slower and finish strong anyways (not this slow).  And it's not like he was ever a great hitter outside the sign-stealing years.  He's been basically Ian Happ with better contact, so good for 25 HR.

to be fair to Bregman, the best year in his career was 2 years after the sign stealing year.

Not in fWAR or wRC+

Mo has struggled, but he's hit the ball pretty hard and is 22 with nothing to prove at Iowa. 

Yes, he's he seems to hit a lot of lasers right at people.

What can they even sell?

Get what they can for guys on expiring contracts... i get No trades have to be waived 

Happ, Kelly, Suzuki 

I'd add the pitchers but they might need them to have an actual rotation cause theres really noone in AAA to replace them unless they go full blown really suck ass tank mode.

Boyd, Taillon,  Imanaga, Maton

If they can get really lucky, maybe there will be a contending team looking to add a defensive SS and would be willing to take Swanson 😆

Jesus, most of you need to come off the ledge and stop acting suicidal. Or, stop using that dumb word horsefeathers already.  It’s all your faults.

Nobody is taking Swanson unless the Cubs pay 70% of the money owed and Ricketts wouldn't do that.

This is a huge overreaction to Swanson. I get he isn’t hitting so everyone is on him. But he is still trending to a high 2.5-3.0 WAR at the end of the year. Cubs don’t need to pick up 70% of his contract. Won’t get anything for him but they aren’t paying him $20M a year to be on a different team.

Things could be worse. We could be the Jays, Tigers, Mets, or Red Sox.  All under .500

Give it a week.
