:joy:

Man please the #1 prospect they got who is killing shit in a league where's he's the youngest player

If torres is on the table then go holla at the rays about one of those starters cuz lackey and hammel make me sick to my stomach

nobody wants to face chapman on a freezing october chicago night with him throwing 104 mph

not

a

soul

 

[ckfree]

man i cant stop watching that video

i bet that kid slept with that bat too

i gotta go watch menace to society to bounce back

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

it sounds like the nationals are making it clear that giolito, turner and lopez are unavailable but michael taylor might be the trade bait

man

the yankees would be better off trying to win this year and letting him walk

Nah the yankees want joe ross and the nationals said "no chance" then all of a sudden these cubs are strongly in the mix for chapman reports started coming out.When locally I've been hearing the cubs prefer miller over chapman

It's poker.I wouldn't give up ross for no rental either

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Even though we have another mental midget ace I'll still take Sale, that is some fuck shit though I'll take it as him forcing his way out of Chicago

They'll probably wait til the winter if they do anything so they can get the dodgers,astros,red sox,rangers all involved unless a team gives up what they want in the next 7 days.

you know in the playoffs you need power arms

cubs have a starting rotation with only 1

so the bullpen needs to be loaded on them

look at the royals last 2 years

7th

8th

9th

they bring in 3 power arms and say eat this

but yeah if theo wants this team to be consistent contenders for years to come he'll have to think long and hard about how much of the future he wants to mortgage to break the championship drought this year

especially for a relief pitcher

Wow what a disastrous trade for the dbacks

Not even gonna front despite the fact he's been terrible this year I would love for the cubs to be on this buy low opportunity for miller he's 25

But the marlins,pirates,rangers probably will be on it too depends on the price

Fuck the Orioles

I hope theo aint about to give up the cubs top prospect for a rental

Alex Bregman got called up finally. More firepower in the lineup.

Cubs got chapman.Hope they can re-sign him hate to lose torres but as long as russell and baez are here torres woulda been blocked.

Ayo Tommy what did the Yanks get here? How good are these prospects.... I'm hoping this was a fair deal and not the Cubs bossing up on us

Nah the yankees did real good.Torres is 19 in single a killin keith law had him 15th prospect in baseball mlb.com had him 26th he's a young good ss/2b prospect but he's not projected to be better than russell or baez.

Adam warren sucks you can have him back,mcknnney is weak,the 4th prospect is probably a throw in.Cubs over payed imo I'd rather torres headline a trade for a starter but I won't complain about getting chapman better than the giants or nationals getting him.

 

[IceBergTaylor]

Torres is a SS I wonder if we're gonna send Didi on his way out soon even though he's been doing very well.

If we decide to trade Miller we need a solid starter or a solid bat in return. Yankee offense is dreadful even more pathetic live

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

The cubs bullpen is now nasty

Chapman 9th

Rondon 8th

Strop/Edwards 7th

Grimm/Wood 6th

the cardinals haven't scored off chapman since 2011

Torres wasn't going to play behind Russell and Baez, McKinney has been garbage since his knee surgery and Warren wasn't coming back, If the Cubs win the World series by renting Chapman and not having to give up Schwarber this was a good trade.
