SP Arrieta('s last year) SP Lester (L) SP Lackey SP Hendricks SP JohnsonTrading all the Cubs depth and very high celling players, like Schwarber, Soler, Baez for just one player? No way. Also Angels can just sign Hammel as he is a free agent, and Angels would go into full rebuild mode and would not consider Montero at all. |

The FO has worked at building up this team with young players, I don't understand the urgency to trade them away. If the Cubs don't win the WS this year, (which I don't really expect), next years youngsters will be a year better and so on. If Theo and Jed have done their homework, this group of kids could be huge.
