    On the D'backs trade, some cursory googling shows they indeed are considered weak at first base. but they wouldn't give up their catcher for our catcher. What if it was Bellinger instead. Cubs shed significant salary, lose offense but hope busch would improve in 2025. Use the additional money to get Max Fried. Still I think we hold on to all of our grade B talent and add Fried and some high leverage bp guy and Kyle H. at catcher to hold us over until Bellesteros (sp?) is ready.

  • @robhansen6370
    @robhansen6370 11 часов назад

    Thanks for looking at my trade idea. I suspected I was being too generous to the Astros, but they aren't going to give up Kyle Tucker for pennies on the dollar. Ullola is the Astros #8 prospect, I find it hard to believe his value is that low. Bellinger is included because he gives HOU a replacement for Tucker and it gets him off the Cubs payroll. Ballesteros goes because the possibility that he turns into a MLB level catcher is not very good. Jefferson Rojas is basically position blocked on the Cubs. If the Cubs sign 1 or 2 FA pitchers or trade for 1, then Assad becomes expendable. So, the new trade is Bellinger, Rojas, Ballesteros and Assad to HOU, and the Cubs get Kyle Tucker and Miguel Ullola. You're going to have to overpay if you want Kyle Tucker. Better?

    Dodger one is the best. Opens up a spot for Shaw. But I do not see teams trading for Nico while recovering. But if any team could it would be the dodgers as they have superstar level talent and injury affects them less. You can run another one. Stroman for Bellinger. Cubs need a SP Yankees have 1B and OF needs ATM. This one would fall after Soto decides . This one opens up RF for Caissie which makes sense plus allows for a platoon with Alàcantara.

[Off topic] There's no way the Cubs are more competitive in 2025, given the money situation, after trading Hoerner or Bellinger. Just doesn't make sense unless it's Bellinger for a great offensive catcher who essentially replaces his production. I don't think anyone has a surfeit of great catchers and a dirth of good outfielders. Maybe somebody needs a first baseman badly and has two great catchers. I doubt it. Get Kyle H. and the best starter we can get, provided they are better than Wicks and co. and the high leverage bp guy and that's how we get 90 wins.
