    Just saw that Zobrist has signed with the Cubs reuniting with his bunk buddy Maddon. Castro to the Yankees not happy about that the man seems to be a bit of a head case. Give the job to Refsyyder.

    Cashman WTF is wrong with you. Since you're determined not to give the kids a chance anyway, package Gardner & Refsnyder for a starting pitcher. You moron.

    I know Ron, don't be surprised if Warren becomes a very good starter for the Cubs.

    ...he was a good starter for the Yanx too...but the Yanx traded him away on another very questionable move just like the Murphy trade...in the meantime the Cubs improve themselves by replacing Castro with Zobrist.
    ...if the Yanx go through with trading Gardner it will mean that the Yanx have no starting position players who have come up through their own farm system...isn't this something they were supposed to get away from?

    Scary isn't it. I was a big fan of Warren. I'm just happy that so far that idiot didn't give away any of the kids. Well not yet anyway...........

    The smell of desperation coming out of the Trashcan, stinks of death,.... death to any hopes to ever see another Dynasty, not under Trashman's watch, and probably never under Hank's watch either...

    here I thought Trashcan was going to stick with "The Plan", and let the Prospects prosper.....Ref is getting fkd, as is the Team; and so are Yank Fans......

    I'm getting uncomfortably numb, seeing our asshole GM, flying blindfolded, not by the seat of his pants, cuz he lost his ass (same as his Brain) years ago....

    If he lets go of Severino, Fans should call for Brainless head,
    If he lets go of Bird, Fans should call for his nuts,
    If he lets go of Judge, Fans should tar and feather; & hang him by the feet from the rafters.....

    If Trashcan ever makes a move that makes sense, I'll keel over.....!

    56M over the next 5 years for a player with 19 total games experience at 2B. Cashman is a fucking genius.

    Doesn't say much for Castro when a team (Cubs) gives up on you to sign a player who's 10 years older for the same money.

    Just saw video on Cashman "reasoning" this deal. He then goes on to high hat Warren on what a great this and that he was. My question would be given the qualities mentioned why trade such a fine individual. I liked Warren, the fans liked Warren so akin to Murph they trade him. Cashman you are one dumb SOB, you could have kept Warren, given Refsnyder a shot. Classic JO Cashman move.

    Pretty much the way I see it also Michael. I really wanted to see what Refsnyder could have done with 3-400 ABs.

    Cashman needs to go. His half added deals are pathetic.

    Haven't been here in a bit and wanted to see the take on this deal. How do you not see any positive in it? Warren was not going to get a fair shot here and they turned around and picked up a guy 1 year removed from multiple all star appearances. Young middle infielder with a good/great bat - improves possibly your weakest position. Reminds me of the Didi move. Now coming to a team with existing leaders and guys he can learn from (Arod, Beltran, etc.). Is it asking too much to forget about your hate for Cashman and actually see the value in this deal? It's there.

    It's too late for Trashman, if he found Superman to play ball, I'd still despise the asshole.....
