Update on the Darvish Trade: There’s “growing optimism” that the two sides will complete a deal, tweets USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, adding that an agreement could come together as soon as today.

Another update: It looks like Victor Caratini might be included in the deal.
With the Padres signing Kim, there is a very good chance that Jake Cronenworth is heading to the Cubs. Likely Darvish and Caratini for two big leaguers and 2 prospects. -

Padres are also believed to be in the lead for Ha Seong Kim and a deal could be completed soon. If so it means Cronenworth will get moved to the outfield.
Padres have officially won the Ha Seong Kim sweepstakes

I am, but not on here. Just on Instagram. I am already preparing to write an article on the trade.

I think it's time you announce Springer to the Jays @jz2016cubs

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.

The Cubs are reportedly "EXTENSIVELY shopping" catcher Wilson Contreras. (Bob Nightengale)
I'm so confused. lol -

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

O ya that is right, very good point.

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.
