I still don't think the OF rumors made sense unless there was a different deal sending out Soler. As it stands, Coghlan, Soler, and Baez(via Bryant/Zobrist in the OF) make a pretty strong combined option that I don't think is appreciably upgraded by Reddick/Bruce. It's the power lefty bat thing. As bad as Heyward and Montero have been, would be nice to have some power beyond Rizzo. Pretty much this. I know the Cubs have hit RHP and LHP pretty much equally this year, but with Heyward,Montero and Coghlan struggling and with TLS in AAA, it sure would be nice to have another lefty bat who could do some damage. I really liked the Blackmon idea.
