Thank god we're getting max value out of Markakis' contract. A bargain compared to Zobrist.

That's a pretty great signing for the Cubs. They're one SP from probably being the WS favorite going into next year. Hmmm.....

It's a win now move by the Cubs. I don't like the 4 years for him but the Cubs can absorb it and he's likely to be well worth more than 14 million for the first couple of years on the deal.

Trade Soler+ for Miller, sign Heyward, win WS, profit.

He was actually only barely more valuable than Markakis this past year, and he's 3 years older.

That would be bonkers.

Cespedes, just kidding, i wish.

 

[smootness]

Why the heck do we care so much about adding a RH CF?

 

[Heyward]

Castro to the Yankees, per Sherman.

 

[dak]

Craig Gentry or Drew Stubbs would be my preference in CF. Could would be very low on a 1 year deal.

Markakis was sold as a win now move. Lol
