    DEAL IS DONE: #Cubs send Samardzija and Hammel to #Athletics for Addison Russell, per sources. May be other players and team(s) involved.

    Thats a massive move. Holy crap. I can't believe they traded Addison Russel. you have to give Beane credit...he is the best GM in the business. Never afraid to make a big move.

    Hammel is on a 1-yr deal and Samardizja is due a huge contract soon.

    A bit risky.

    THank god I never have to hear people willing to trade Minor for Samardzija. Nor do I have to cringe at people spelling Samardzija's name wrong.

    Love this trade for the Cubs. Similar to the Myers-Shields trade.

    Wow, Beane has to be the best GM in baseball. Best record in baseball by a mile with Scott Kazmir and Jesse Chavez as key members of the rotation. Now Beane sees his chance at a world series and he is going for it.
