Too many are too eager to trade Shaw for non baseball reasons. I find that disappointing. He should NOT be traded and this headline for this piece stirs the pot. That is also disappointing. You need a versatile player on the bench. As others have said, Berti and his ilk were not the answer last season. I was a huge advocate for acquiring Willi Castro, but he never found his footing as a Cub. Keep Shaw. He's an excellent defender and base runner and the bat will only get better. The price is right and he's home grown.

How totally refreshing to see a fair, objective article about the job Jed Hoyer has done as PBO. Nice to know there is one journalist out there who is fair and factual. Thanks Matt.

I have to disagree on Tucker. Less than $400mm won't get it done. He's also a better defender and base runner than Prince, Soto or Bryce. In my heart, he's our guy and he is the player that the Cubs need to pay up for.

I snagged him in a couple dynasty leagues with deep minor league rosters. Cub fans know who he is, but many don't.

I'd have to say that the articles here are cerebral and detailed. Glad to have discovered this site!
