Harry Chappas Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Think they gotta start another rebuild. Calling game yesterday hurt cub more than Marlins as Marlins bullpen was fresh. While I am mad the Sox lost at least their arrow is pointing in the right direction. Schwarber, Baez, Rizzo and Bryant - 1 hit amongst them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with his philosophy that he and Bill Walsh regarding the need for change every 10 years. Sad that isn't the case on 35th and Shield.

Harry Chappas Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 6 hours ago, Tony said: Won’t happen because of optics......but if you had the payroll flexibility, Kris Bryant could fill a one year hole in RF while also filling in for the sometimes-injured Yoan Moncada at 3B and a very poor-fielding LF in Eloy. And you probably aren’t paying a lot of one year of Bryant with a 20-22 million dollar price tag attached to him for one year. I’d take my chances on Bryant during his walk year... I think the cubs have to hope he turns it around. If it was a not top 5 piece I'd make that trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubs have to move him. Its either this offseason or at the trading deadline, either way they can't let him finish the year with them just for a pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does round back into form and is playing well and they are seeing the results similar to his MVP year then moving him at the deadline comes a larger white flag issue....same with the rest of their core Edited October 8, 2020 by Harry Chappas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably looking at something in the mid 20's in terms of a contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boras probably won't recommend it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southwest Sider Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I think Cubs have to move him this offseason. They should be contenders next year and trying to trade Bryant in the middle of a divisional race will not sit well with fans. Best to cut ties now. It'll be interesting to see what they get.

southsider2k5 Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 10 minutes ago, Tony said: Ehhhh I don’t think they are “contenders” next year. Right now Yu and Hendricks are the only guys locked into their rotation. They have an awful farm system and they simply can’t come back in 2021 with a core of Rizzo-Bryant-Baez-Contreras again. I think it’s time to gut the thing. I think they are "contenders" in that they are probably the most talented team in that division and probably the leaders to make the playoffs out of the NL Central, but they are not a top tier team anymore.

Now obviously that is some small sample size stuff, but he was really terrible. There is certainly a hefty amount risk attached to trading for him.
