I'm sure there's a reason but trading a major leaguer for AA seems odd. Hopefully somebody is coming off IL.
It would seem like they should put Nico on DL retro and get an extra bat on the roster for PH situations. I understand if they wouldn't want to bring up a prospect. But why not Bote?IL coming in 3..2..1
The Rays kicked us a lottery ticket so they could jump the waiver line.I'm sure there's a reason but trading a major leaguer for AA seems odd. Hopefully somebody is coming off IL.
Bote not on 40, likely be Vazquez. Plus he's plus SS.It would seem like they should put Nico on DL retro and get an extra bat on the roster for PH situations. I understand if they wouldn't want to bring up a prospect. But why not Bote?
Lovelady was DFA so getting something instead of nothing is not a bad thing. Not a notable transaction really.I'm sure there's a reason but trading a major leaguer for AA seems odd. Hopefully somebody is coming off IL.
But don't the Cubs free up a spot on 40 man by trading Lovelady?Bote not on 40, likely be Vazquez. Plus he's plus SS.
They DFAed (and then traded) Lovelady to free up a spot for Miller.But don't the Cubs free up a spot on 40 man by trading Lovelady?
It's just strange in this situation they let a healthy arm go. Hopefully it means we're getting guys back shortly.They DFAed (and then traded) Lovelady to free up a spot for Miller.
Brennen Davis had a 5 consecutive game with HR streak snapped yesterday but making up for it today.
Happ doesn't have options.So bring Davis up and send Happ down?
4/5 w/ a double and 2 dongs. Be tough to carry 5 outfielders but seems they need to find a way.So bring Davis up and send Happ down?
It's ugly.The glut of outfielders is a good problem but a problem nonetheless. There has to be some regret in the FO to give Happ the No Trade Clause. Almost feels like Canario and Davis are eventually traded.
