2 trades the Cubs could possibly make to upgrade at C and SP. Cubs could offer Ben Brown, Wesneski, and Mervis to the A's for Langeliers. A's get to MLB ready pitchers and a bat all with 5 years of control each while the Cubs get their upgrade at C. Next Cubs could offer Bellinger, Hoerner, and 10M (7+3) to Seattle for Castillo. Seattle gets the infield upgrades on the 1B/2B side of the field while the Cubs get the TOR starter and the moves would open up about 5M in CBT money.
Shaw can play 3rd at a league average lvl in the MLB. He wont be a plus defender there but just as good as Parades is for example. (Except more athletic/faster) Idk who you two been talking to about it but he made ALOT of progress in AAA & even more in the WBC. 2nd base is his more natural fit though & he's probably better there in the future. (Cuz Cam Smith is going to be a beast)

If Mastrobuoni is the opening day 2B if Nico is hurt, it will be proof the offseason was another Cub failure.
Mornin fellow sickos
People conveniently forget that Paredes had hit .140 the previous month prior to the trade.
If you're a salty cubs fan, Paredes stinks. If not, he has a good track record
@ im being realistic. Parades was slumping big time before the Cubs got him.
Cant blame Wrigley Field for that.
A Bellinger for Luis Castillo is a perfect match.
Cubs would have to pay a top prospect like Horton at a minimum
What about like a bellinger for Correa?
