That's a major downgrade from Tyson Ross.

Well he'll be fun to watch when the wind's blowing out at Wrigley. He gives up a lot of HRs as is.

He has a deceiving 3.42 ERA, as his FIP is 4.57.

Even kids in old Boys and Girls Clubs commercials know that.

 

Lol.

 

HUGE DEADLINE FOR THE CUBS!

His Twitter handle is @ithrow88. Buehrle should be @ithrow83 :lol:

That seems to be the exact opposite of how Theo has been operating recently.

They probably are not done, or shouldn't be anyway

He's actually throwing 86 this year. No surprise why he gives up so many HRs.

He's a lot better than Beeler though.

Miami will get SS Elliott Soto and RHP Ivan Pineyro in return.

They may get Ross and Kimbrel still.

If I'm the Cubs, I'm not paying an arm and a leg to move up. They don't have the horses to go deep into the post-season. If I'm the Cubs, I give it the ole college shot and either swing big for a long-term piece or make some small moves that give the impression of us going (an if everything works out, great, we get their) but nothing more. Being over aggressive now, given the position they are in, would be absolutely insane, imo.

I imagine it's going something like this.

 

Cubs: "You can have Castro"

Padres "No, we want Baez"

Cubs: "Castro"

Padres: "Baez"

Rabbit season.

Duck season.

Cubs are trying to work something out with LA for Alex Wood. Would love to see the Sox trump the cubs and get Alex Wood for the future rotation.

Just got Tommy Hunter also

He used to have a pretty electric arm with the Braves/Orioles once upon a time...better as a reliever than starter.

Source confirms #Cubs trade Junior Lake to #Orioles for Tommy Hunter and are done dealing for today.
