Source confirms Soler in the mix to NYY.





Chapman + Miller for Torres+Soler?

Chapman + Eovaldi? Pineda?

Didn't they already say Miller is staying put?

Insiders keep saying the Cashman/Yankees wanted to sell Chapman first and then go from there. But like Les said, fluid. Hal Steinbrenner could also veto a trade at the drop of a hat.

and i guess Beltran could be in the mix, but wouldnt make sense to trade a 23yr OF for a half of a season of Beltran

Certainly seems at this point like the Cubs will get Chapman, but I won't believe anythinf until he is at the podium wearing different color pinstripes

From Sahadev :

Hearing names are done, Torres the big fish from Cubs, but more being sent to Yanks. If finalized, Cubs get only Chapman.

Man that's a huge package for a rental but if the Cubs win the WS it doesn't matter

I think a few Cub fans in here have said the main piece is kind of in a logjam at his position which makes this not as bad.

Could have misunderstood that.

where does Torres play in an infield of Bryant 3B, Russell SS, Baez 2B?


he is 19 and in single A. shite, we dont even know if he'll even be good enough to play in the MLB.

They've proven to find talent pretty frequently. I think its worth the risk for a known commodity like Chapman that fills the biggest need on the team.

I still think that Soler has a chance to be a super special player. I don't want him traded at all.

His bat, yeah. His Defense will never be anything more than average. And that's a stretch

No way they're trading Torres & Soler for 6 months of Chapman, huh? Not like this season is go for broke.
