One of the main reasons in having a good farm system is to have assets for trades, especially impact moves. Nobody gets anything extra for hording their [expletive] prospects. Not saying you have to keep them all, next trade deadline when the Cubs are hopefully contending, we'll have the pieces to go out and improve the team and fill needs. THEY ARE CONTENDING, FOR THE LOVE OF [expletive]. They're 7-9 in a stretch against their easiest schedule of the season and the Giants look like they're going to roll through the rest of the season. Even if they make the playoffs, they're not getting past Pittsburgh, St. Louis, and LA.
