    So a couple of days ago Sharma said it doesn’t look like the Cubs are going to sign Soto and today they mentioned Santander as a possible target . Can’t say that I am surprised . Santander depending on Bellinger opt out / catcher / 1 SP and 2 relievers will probably be the off-season plan IMO.
  2. Dfan25
    Just got to make sure Neris player option vest in and we are saved .
  3. Dfan25
    World Series here we come

    This clown isn’t even good enough to know when he should stay under the LT . Going to be sweet when they stay under next season . Sad thing is his extension is probably at Ricketts desk already .
  5. Dfan25
    Looks like no one wants Neris on a 1 / 9 for 25 . Stuck with him , great
  6. Dfan25
    Hopefully they can trade Neris and Smyly and n the next couple of hours . Philly looking for a CF . Would love to move Bellinger , but that ain’t happening . Think they are making a mistake in not moving Taillon . I think he is an upper 3 ‘s low 4 ‘s era the next 2 years making 17 per . Not terrible but that money could be better used elsewhere .

    I really don’t mind trading Morel . Even if he becomes a thing with the bat , he just had no future with Cubs .
  8. Dfan25
    Morel is gone
  9. Dfan25
    Ty Johnson and Biggie
  10. Dfan25
    Morel just has no position . Doesn’t surprise me they traded him .
  11. Dfan25
    Morel going to TB as part of the deal
  12. Dfan25
    It makes sense but it’s scary at the same time .

    Cubs aquire Paredes

    I know Anthony Santander isn’t a good fielder but I wouldn’t hate him as a DH - RF splitting time with Suzuki . Seems like he has found himself as a hitter at age 29 . Lots of HR , switch hits , really good numbers with RISP the last 2 years . Yes I would like Soto but that ain’t happening . Also unless he goes on a tear when he comes back , Bellinger may actually stay next year . Bellinger in CF with Santander - Suzuki as RF / DH . .
  15. Dfan25
    Don’t hate it . Hopefully they can find a 3B the next couple of days . Miguel Vargas from the Dodgers ?
  16. Dfan25
    Really don’t care about Suzuki or any of them . With that said Suzuki isn’t getting traded .
  17. Dfan25
    Orioles get Eflin from Rays . Probably takes them out of Taillon ?
  18. Dfan25
    They were always going to sell . They are over the luxury tax . They were not going to go over 2 years in a row and o am sure they prefer to go over next season if needed . If they can’t move Bellinger due to the fracture is going to be interesting to see if they move Taillon . Read something about the Red Sox having interest in him today . Hopefully they can get someone to take on Neris based on track record

    This draft is as exciting as watching the Cubs play . Still is interesting to read the comments after they underslot someone nobody has heard about . The majority of posters will complaint about the pick while the nerds will search and post reasons as to why the pick was awesome .
  20. Dfan25
    I wouldn’t expect much movement . Just enough to get under the LT . They won’t go over in a season like this . Even if somehow they get back into the WC race , they will stay under to keep the option of going over next year open if needed .
  21. Dfan25
    If they trade those 3 players the Cubs would have way over 100 million to use next offseason and more players to fill holes or more trade pieces to work with If Jed Hoyer has way over 100 million to use and a strong minor league system he should be able to put together a playoff caliber team . If not he needs to get his ass fired . So yes he should be able to find better players with the amount of money he should have available and the trade pieces he should have available . If not we have a problem at the FO of this team
  22. Dfan25
    Just keep losing . Don’t want them to get 2-3 under before the deadline and keep this roster the same . Goal should be to unload as many contracts as possible . They should look into dealing Happ / Taillon if posible . I would be open to moving Hoerner as well . Try to get back some players close to the majors . No A ball kids . Time to break this core up . It isn’t working .
  23. Dfan25
    Can’t wait until Hoyer fixes 3B with Eugenio Suarez as he looks for his value deals .
  24. Dfan25
    This team is total trash . They look like this againts the majority of pitchers they face . Guys that don’t strike people out , strikes them out . Amazed people talk like they will be buyers next month . What they should do is try to trade as much of this garbage as possible and get under the LT. Hopefully get over next year if Hoyer actually does his job well and puts together a good roster .
  25. Dfan25
    They should trade whoever they can and that’s including Nico , Happ / Suzuki . I know there are NTC and it’s unlikely but paying 20 + million to guys like Happ is too much for a franchise that operates like a mid market team . This core is not working out .
