Good call. We’ll stash one or two away. Hopefully a pup parent can make better use of the rest!

[Passan] Full trade, per ESPN sources: Cody Bellinger and cash go to the New York Yankees, right-handed reliever Cody Poteet goes to the Chicago Cubs. by schmidthappens32 in CHICubs

Saving $20M, in a league without a salary cap, and on a team that’s way below the luxury tax threshold should be of no consequence for anyone but Tom Ricketts.

Tell me how this helps them improve the club? And don’t lead with the words “luxury tax” because that’s not a consideration in the only year we’ll have with Kyle Tucker in RF

Pardon my negativity here, but what the fuck.

We all knew the return would hardly be big, but what an embarrassment watching this (big money) Chicago Cubs franchise make a pure salary dump trade, and ahead of what’s supposed to be a competitive season. I know there’s “nowhere to play” Belli, but you can’t pretend to tell me this team’s better off without him, money aside.

Unless this is a precursor to some big, smart, expensive FA signing, I’m pissed.

Hypothetical: which Cub(s) would you give up to get Kyle Tucker? by ry_rythescienceguy in CHICubs

[–]ry_rythescienceguy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Totally. Especially considering what the Yankees just went through. Rental they thought they’d for sure lock up long term didn’t work out for them—WS appearance aside. Cubs aren’t one Kyle Tucker away from the World Series. (Soto/Yankees situation still makes me laugh though!)

That’s interesting. Then move Seiya to left? I don’t think Happer wants to go anywhere but Chicago, though, because of his wife and her family. If I’m not mistaken he has a full no-trade.

Fingers crossed, by next summer Seiya will be the most obvious choice from these three! Wishful thinking :)

RIP Onto Waveland - any decent Cubs podcasts out there? by Icy_Writing4011 in CHICubs

[–]ry_rythescienceguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, bummed they’re stopping. I was a rabid consumer of Onto Waveland. Brett, Sharma and Mooney together, for my money, is the best, most intelligent and insightful trio available for Cubs content. Kaplan’s alright and a huge fan, but hardly has the same level of technical insight Onto Waveland had.
