Baron Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Didn't somebody tell the Padres they have no money left? Remember the Hosmer deal. They are broke. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting Blake Snell without giving up Kopech or Vaughn would have been a massive steal, especially with Crochet's elbow prolly being a ticking time bomb. You gotta be in it to win it. SD is a franchise making big moves to win now, too bad we are not. We would never make a move like this. Ghosts of Jerry Krause, I mean Jerry Reinsdorf, haunt these halls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 This is a very risky deal for the Cubs but the upside is huge. The oldest prospect in the package is 20 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white Sox would have a better chance to win the World Series by winning their division than the padres will in the wildcard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maloney.adam Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I wonder how the Twins fans are feeling right now when a lot of people had Darvish being traded to them and now they may lose Odorizzi to another team as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt they are worried about us right now, we have a chance to put a strangle hold on the division for the next 5 years and we are letting the opportunity pass us by. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oldest prospect in the package is 20 years old. He is owed almost 60 mil and is 34. The Cubs took what they could get. The fact some of their fans thought it should be a Sale level deal is more of an indication that there probably was lead paint in the bleachers and they have long term brain damage. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 How do these prospects compare to our system? What would an equivalent return be? If the Sox were in on Darvish at all, any deal probably fell apart due to requiring the Cubs to kick some money in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I absolutely love how the Padres did this all by using their 6-20 prospects. I’ve always thought the top guys are way more vital than the depth guys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
