  1. I think the Yankees could get both TBH . They need 2 OF and a 1B . They are in on everybody it seems i seriously doubt they are going to let the Cubs get Tucker .
  2. Heyman says there was a bit of progress late today between the Yanks and Cubs
  3. I think he ends up with the Yankees for Gil or Schmidt along with Rice
  4. This thing seems to be moving fast , considering yesterday the talk from the Astros was , we will listen on everybody .
  5. I dont like their chances if the Yanks offer Luis Gil . Rice could fit what they are looking for as well . Cubs may need to take Pressly to have a better chance.
  6. There seems to be a lot of Christian Walker / Yankees smoke Would think Bellinger would still be on the table for them at CF .
  7. A team source said a Bellinger trade could happen this week .
  8. These meetings have been really boring so far . Would have expected more by now , with all the talk about things getting crazy after Soto . I know still a couple of days left , but really slow so far .
  9. Cubs making progress with Carson Kelly on deal
  10. Bob says the Dbacks tríed to get the Cubs to take Montgomery for Bellinger .
  11. 🤣🤣
  12. Hopefully this isnt a situation where they have to make a trade before a signing . I dont think Kelly will be there on the market too much lo longer . Its basically down to him in terms of catching options If they dont get Kelly , pretty good chance Thais will be the back up
  13. Levine says the Cubs arent looking to just get salary relief with Bellinger FWIW , and they arent willing to eat much money .
  14. Kaplan said he made some calls today and the Cubs are talking with the Sox about Crochet and with the Mariners about Luis Castillo .
  15. According to Levine Chafin / Yates / Carson Kelly and Danny Jansen on Cubs radar .
  16. There s enough smoke on this that i think Its going to happen after Soto signs . If what they are hoping for is unload the entire salary , then the Yankees are the best fit . They wont get anything back on this scenario though . Curious as to what they would do after because i dont think they are doing anything big on offense .
  17. It doesnt matter because the Cubs will go over again next year 🤣
  18. Congrats to the Cubs ownership . They just won the dork of the week award from Ken Rosenthal . Well deserved
  19. Not surprise at all . I do think that they are facing some sort of payroll cut . While it may not be big , it does have an impact . We have to remember that they dont use all available money in the off season . If they are facing a 10 mil or so cut then they would have like 40 left and when you factor the money for in season , then i wouldnt be surprised if they have closer to 30 available , ínstead of 50 . So far they have traded for a cheap reliever that pitched more like 4:00 era guy last season , sign two pre arbi deals with a couple guys out of options that some could argue should have been non tendered . Finally traded for a junk back up catcher candidate. The moves they are making point to an executive , who is facing payroll cut IMO . I think their best bet to try and compete, would be keeping Bellinger , trading for a cost control SP and signing Sasaki . Use the limited funds they have after that and get 1 or two real reliever s and a couple of bench bats .
  20. How much money left now ? 70 or so ?
  21. 😂😂
  22. If Bellinger doesn’t opt out , they aren’t doing much on offense other than a catcher . I would expect a SP though and a couple of relievers . It’s going to be a really boring offseason .
  23. Taylor Rogers just got put on waivers by the Giants . He has 1 year left at 11 mil . If they will end over the tax this year , they should maybe put a claim on him ? A high leverage lefty is a need for 25.
