    In case you were worried:

    Damn, kinda feels like the end of an era. I suppose it is.

    Surprised no one is posting here seeing as the trade is confirmed.

    Yanks covet him. Would love him but I feel like Miller would be more likely from them. I am intrigued by the Adam Warren rumor. did I miss a tweet that's been posted that Warren is actually rumored to be tied to the trade? Or is this still speculation on our part? Joel Sherman raised the possibility.

    BOOM. We're done here.

    I would be really happy with Adam Warren.

    He's now obligated to have another kid and name it Cub.

    If Sherman is right and Cubs get Warren for Castro... I'm gonna actually be really happy.

    You may be able to backload, defer, whatever on Zobrist. So we don't know that part of it. For that matter, we really don't know what the payroll limitations are either. I think he's a substantial upgrade from Starlin for the first 2 years anyway. The versatility is great, the contact is great.....I think he'd be a great addition. And I doubt this has anything at all to do with Heyward. I JUST WANT HEYWARD DAMNIT

    Nah Id be pretty happy to. I don't like Castro and I'd certainly prefer to have Zobrist on the roster than Castro. I just see Castro as a defensive liability and a bit of a mental flake. He's had a pretty inconsistent career. You're going to hate Zobrist's 2B defense if you think Castro is a liability there. Ick, UZR had him terrible in LF too. Did he have nagging injuries or something? He was pretty good at 2B and other-worldly in the OF in '14. He had a knee injury early in the year for Oakland last year, iirc. Brett from BN had him as below average at 2B in 2 of past 8 years.

    I just don't see the point here. If the budget is as tight as reported, this seems like a weird way to spend it. Zobrist doesn't fill a glaring need (he's not a CF - 203 career innings in CF) and while he's probably a safe bet to be better than Castro, I have a hard time seeing the difference being worth the price hike. He's also a decent bet to drop a cliff in the near future. I just don't get it at all.

    For the record, I am not down with this move(s) as rumored.
