When your major league lineup is that solid, you move minor league prospects for pitching.
To me, should have gone after controllable starting pitching. Never thought late inning relief was a major concern for them. This feels like just as much keeping him away from the other NL contenders. Wade Davis is a better example of a closer that this package would make sense for.

The #Cubs do not have contract extension with Aroldis Chapman once #Yankees deal becomes official. Yankees tried themselves, and rebuffed.
Gotta love Kaplan having no problem with his Cubs getting Chapman, yet he acted like the Sox actions towards LaRoche was worse thing ever. Bernstein is definitely not happy about Cubs getting Chapman.

Quite the disaster but Robertson pitched yesterday and twice today.Should be more level headed about it.He doesn't have a rubber arm. Feel bad for Q .
Was thinking it's not worth the risk of getting him hurt if he's on the block

I do agree with their objection to this one. At least Sale controlled himself and didn't attack the food table with a knife.
Their opinion is legit. Just seems like they let things escalate too much

Rick Hahn: At no point did Chris Sale ask to be traded.

Watching the press conference on TV, hahn's answer was not as concise as this

So if he's suspended 5 games, that means Gonzalez, Shields, Turner, Ranaudo are in line to face the Cubs? (Pukes on the ground).
Sale pitching Thursday
