Good news. Hope an extension can be finalized.
Steep price for marginal improvement. Hoping Royals move Davis and Hoch and maybe Kelvin Herrera.
Man, thats a lot to give up. Don't care about Warren, McKinney is still a potential lotto ticket if he can develop some power. The other I would assume is just a guy, but still. 4 for 1?
Agreed the extension is the key to this deal.
But...Cubs are 55-1 when leading going into 9th, 53-1 going into 8th, 53-5 going into 7th. Doesn't appear to be much room for improvement from status quo but Chapman adds strength for postseason.
I'm sure they do.
They'll have a good bit of money freed up this offseason as well
Who's coming off the books after this year? Fowler and Wood? That's not a ton - am I missing someone?
After 2017, definitely, Miggy is gone, Lackey is gone, Hammel is gone, Arrieta may be
