Expand Spoke with a consultant to the Bulls earlier in the year, and had to laugh at some of the dumbass s%*# going on there. Cubs have the best chance to do something this decade. Hawks have better ownership at this stage, but their FO is untested and it will take at least 3-4 years to build a SC capable core if they do most things right from here on out. The Bears, Bulls and Sox need new ownership groups for any possible future success (completely new, not kids inheriting and keeping).

Pretty incredible they got 5 players for Bummer, at least 3 of them who could provide some value. Guess we shall see with Soroka though. Shuster seems like the true headliner; imagine he slots into the rotation right away. Expand With a 6.79 ERA, I'm amazed we got anything for Bummer. I won't miss him.
