I don't know as much about baseball as most around here, but, money aside, this worked out for the Yankees, right? They basically loaned Chapman to the Cubs for half a year and get to keep the prospects they got in return.

And the Cubs got a ship.

I didn't say it didn't work out for the Cubs.

Too risky. He's 1 more violation from a long suspension.. plus he got stretched a bit far this year. I hope the Yankees protected themselves in the deal.

Got to see him in person in sept during lambo trip. Holy mother of frick dude can sling it.
Good for him. Reminiscent of billy wagner. I hate the Yankees but I will always pull for that guy

Well thanks for spelling it out for me.

That is a shite fricking ton of money for a closer.

Cubs got a ship and got Wade Davis to close this year, so their set. But could they have gotten Miller with the same package they put together for Chapman or did that extra year of control make him more expensive? I have no idea what the Indians gave up for him. But that was, obviously before his all-time playoff run.

Gotta replace Mariano somehow

And the Yankees gave up scraps to trade for him originally

As a cubs fan, I'm perfectly ok with this. A WS was worth it.

They wanted schwarber for Miller

Besides the 7th game collapse, the deal still looks great to the cubs and the Yankees begrudgingly for me came out smiling..
