They asked and were refused. I know at one point the rumor was they had a deal done for David Robertson that got up to the ownership level and Lerner vetoed. I can't remember who was in the deal now from the Washington side though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if it was indeed Soto and their entire org was fine with it except for the owner.. then Lerner had just saved himself from having to fire Rizzo. Imagine the backlash of trade away Soto for an RP, 6 months after a trade that everyone in the media pegged them as being fleeced on.

Luzardo is no Soto but would have been a great pickup too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where does he rank in the prospect list right now? Not sure if he was available during the Eaton trade, but would have been nice if we "settled" for Soto, Lopez, and Dunning. Just got called up to the Nats. They aren't playing around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 If Torres and Eloy dominate MLB the next 10 years, is Theo still a genius? Torres is on fire. 21 years old, misses a year hurt and he owns the AL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Not to mention Cease might be the best pitcher in the entire organization right now. Jeimer Candelario for Wilson/Avila isn’t looking that great, either...http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/profile.asp?ID=204340. Isaac Paredes is now Detroit’s #7 prospect and their heir-apparent at SS to Jose Iglesias. Although, to be fair, where were either of them going to play for the Cubs? Also let Christian Villanueva go for nothing to the Padres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iWiN4PreP Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 In retrospect, the cubs moves look absolutely horrible. They've lost Eloy, Cease, Jorge Soler, Candelario, Gleyber Torres ++? Just badddd trades. Torres is a star, Soler and Candelario are really learning how to hit and we all know about Eloy and Cease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
