The Darvish trade is “inevitable”
Likely Yu and Caratini for 4 players. -
It sounds as if Cronenworth will not be traded to the Cubs.
-
Davies and “several prospects,” including 2020 second-round outfielder Owen Caissie, will be going to the Cubs, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports. Shortstop Reginald Preciado will also head to Chicago, per Acee, who adds that the trade features “two other prospects.” The Cubs won’t get any of the Padres’ top five prospects, according to Nightengale.

I'm so confused. lolYou and me both, if this is a rebuild then why go and get a 27 year old pitcher yesterday and not throw in Contreras instead of Caratini?

Caratini is Darvish's personal Catcher

The Twins have signed Hansel Robles.
Robles will earn $2M on a one-year contract. -
Free-agent first baseman Justin Smoak is nearing a contract with the Yomiuri Giants of Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball. Smoak will earn a guaranteed $6MM to $7MM if the deal goes through. (Passan)
-
Acording to Darvish he didn't even get a heads up that he was traded. Silence from the Cubs front staff. If true that's pretty disgusting and makes me think what is going on.
-
Also: Hoyer says that the reports of them shopping Contreras is a lie. Who knows anymore.
-
The Cubs and Marquee Sports Network are hiring Jon “Boog” Sciambi as Len Kasper's replacement.
@samguenther1987
This is a big dub. Best replacement there is. -
Anything big happening with the Tigers? It's doubtful we'll trade for anyone big with how Avila wants to use the farm system, but I'm not ruling anything out.

Statement from the MLB and MLBPA: "As we've made clear to the league on multiple occasions, we expect Spring Training and the regular season to the start time, and as scheduled, consistent with our CBA. The league does not have the authority or legal basis to unilaterally delay or shorten the schedule without Players consent. While there still continue to be challenges, our Players have proven they can safely play a season under difficult circumstances, as have the other sports. The Commissioners Office has assured us that they have instructed the Clubs to prepare for an on time start."
