Having realized the gap in the market, word apparently leaked out that we were willing to listen on Inciarte already. Another one of those deals I wouldn't "expect", but could see the logic in...
Teheran and Inciarte for Soler, Baez, and Hammel.
Clearing Hammel's money gives them any extra money needed to land Heyward. Inciarte gives them their CF and allows the Cubs to leave Heyward in RF. Their rotation becomes Arrieta, Lester, Lackey, Teheran, Warren.
CF- Inciarte, RF- Heyward, 3B, Bryant, 1B- Rizzo, LF- Schwarber, 2B- Zobrist, C- Montero, SS- Russell
That's pure pie-in-the-sky, but I did hear the mention that we'd "listen" on Ender too.
Not so sure I'd HAVE to have Soler or Baez in a Teheran deal. I actually might even prefer to trade him to get the lesser names. If Julio would get you Billy McKinney and Willson Contreras I'd have a tough time saying no.
