We have DEFINITELY seen an over population of talent out there at 2B.

And from the sounds of it, they have been trying to trade him for a year now, FWIW.

This thing is none of those guys have superstar potential, which is the difference. Madrigal is a guy who will be good to very good for the next decade, assuming his body holds up. Heuer is a closer top. In exchange you got one of the best closer in the game for the next two years.

The foodies are full of shit. That's what happened.

lol, yeah, but at least he tried.

That's awesome.

Wow. Let's see how bad this hurts.

After going 42 pitches yesterday, he probably isn't available for a few days, but the Sox seem to be willing to work around it.

They blew their window big time. No one really needs 2Bs anymore.

Him being able to just let loose for an inning instead of needing to be sharp for 6? He's got some awesome stuff anyway, but being let loose like that? Heck look how much Reynaldo has played up out there.

I think he will be a starting 3B for a long time. I don't think he will ever be a star, but he has the tools to do the job effectively. The kid can freaking hit.

Like I said, if they make the move, it tells me they are serious about payroll expansion. Heck you don't even ask about the guy otherwise.

As insanely competitive as Liam is? I figure he would be pissed off for months. But who knows.

OK Stan.

With Kris Bryant about to leave town, Jake Burger is a guy that makes sense for the Cubs, especially if the deal gets expanded.

It's probably an audition for the next two months TBH.

DAMN YOU FOR BEING NOT TOO FAR OFF OF REALISTIC

I have to imagine the Cubs are looking to dump dollars, and will send him to a team that will pay his money.

If the Sox get Kimbrel, they are serious about payroll the next few years. They don't add a relief pitcher with that price tag without it.
