Reds vs Cubs 7/7-7/10

[LOOGY]

Chicago enters town for the rare 5 game series. The probable pitchers for this are a mess so I won't bother with those. The only definitive matchup is Leake vs Edwin Jackson tomorrow. Hopefully they can at least get 3 of these games. 4 would be optimal and 5 would be awesome.

Nice of them to deal Samardzija before coming back into town for five.

 

My buddy, who is a big Cubs fan, says that they have a plethora of SS now in the organization. Castro, who was just named an all-star and two very solid prospects in the minors due to the trade with the A's. Any chance we get a deal down with a division rival?

I don't think Cozart is going anywhere.

Who do you want to trade to them?

The Cubs most likely wouldn't trade in division.

Epstein is stockpiling talent. Probably his best course of action considering the circumstance.

Honestly not really sure and I don't pay enough attention to contracts to even know what would potentially work for them.

 

I'd imagine they are going to want starting pitching for anything they do moving forward.

Whats up with Chapman?

 

Price said he had a sore hamstring but he should be available Tuesday.

He's never played in the infield before.
