I know we want Suzuki / Belli but you save a lot of money with this and not signing Bregman. Think you can aggressively pursue a free agent or get an OF in a Framber trade.

Getting Cam Smith would be YUGE. Get it done Dana.

Paredes and Smith mean see shed money and have more to offer Bregman possibly. Then we don't take a big defensive hit at 3B.
Or this if you move Paredes to 1B

I would be fine with Paredes & Smith but would like a "player to be named later" added based on whether or not the Cubs extend Tucker.

So basically...

Dana wants Gil over Cubs package
Yankees don't wanna move Gil
Cubs want to move Belli but don't want to eat any of his money
Suzuki is out because of his NTC

And Fck the yankees!!!

I miss anything?

I do not like trading Tucker to the yanks if all we get back is a pitcher. That leaves us with gaping holes on both sides of the infield and in right field. Parades and a corner infielder leave us with a hole in right field that I'm afraid we'll try to go cheap to fix.

Appreciate all the Cubs coverage this week!


How are the Cubs not better? I really like the roster and the farm. I guess it's mostly pitching.
They are the Cubs? They are Angels of the NL.
Last year their bullpen was a mess. Can thank your boy Neris for a lot of that dumpster fire. Management has been completely unwilling to spend any meaningful resources on their pen. They had some past success in turning misfits into decent guys, but they depend on that model every year and it has been backfiring recently.

I think it could be huge, but he is still not even 1 year removed from Florida State. So far so good but will still need some time.

Would we be OK taking Belli and all his money if they take Pressly and all his?

Paredes, Cam Smith, and Belli for Tucker and Pressly

Could be the next Langford, Skenes, & Crews type.

Framber, Tuck, and Pressly for Parades, Suzuki, Cam Smith, and Belli.

I think we'd need another prospect.

I think we lose this trade. They would need to add more prospect help.

Houston says hell no IMO

Here's the type of trade you could do with Baltimore. This is why I kind of like the Gil trade more as I think offensive players work better with Baltimore. Or you could sign a guy like Flaherty to replace Framber.

I also wouldn't mind keeping Framber and signing Profar to replace Tuck. That team is good enough to win the west.

I'm in the same boat. I am also scanning for 2015's posts lol
No matter what!
Epstein didn't do, you know, the thing...
I'm the rare Astros/Cowboys/Spurs fan. We do exist

The Framber to Baltimore fit is too good to be true. Would love to take a couple young hitters off their hands

I hope the Astros aren't truly waiting for Bregman in order to execute a trade.

Might be wrong but I think Devin Williams is a FA after next season.
