I’ll admit I was wrong. I did not think he was a viable every day CF
McCormick can; Tucker cannot.
I’m not pissed. If those in the know think Maton can pitch then he’ll be more valuable than Straw in CF. Pressley came over in the trade a few years back and was instantly a shut down setup guy.
True, but I think I like Straw better as an every day guy than McCormick…I think…given that I haven’t seen Chaz in a daily role…hell I don’t know!
Baby giraffes do not belong in CF
Chas is solid defensively, IMO.
The Cubs traded 3/4 of their infield
Marisnick to SD
Especially when they take awkward routes in the outfield and turn warning track fly balls into home runs.
If we do not get Buxton, I am scratching my head re Straw.
Also, Maton is in his first year of arbitration.
This deadline is absolutely bonkers
Craziest one ever
It’s been fun for sure!!!
Will need to wait about 15-20 after to make sure all done.
There will be trades announced after. Remember Greinke.
I have to think they could have gotten Maton without giving up Straw. There HAS to be another move coming. Just hasn’t been reported yet
How long after was that trade reported?
Bryan Reynolds would be a good get, too. If you want a great defender in center field, I wonder if the Nationals would deal Victor Robles.
10-15 minutes I think.
FUUUUUUUUUUUCK
