CrazyCarl40 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/mlb/news/story?id=5998431 Cubs seem to have given up a lot for a middle of the rotation guy. He's pretty young and proven to be fairly reliable. He'll probably be an even better pitcher in the Nancy League. Just makes the Rays that much more weakened come 2011 season. Much less of a threat now to the Red Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Solid move by the Cubs...borderline 2 in the AL should make him a solid 2 in the NL...and either way I believe he had some upside. Archer could be big in the Rays pen...losing Lee makes me a sad bear for a minute or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a prospect guru but the return sounds pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Cubs fans being Cubs fans actually think we gave up too much...only prospect I miss is Lee, and I think my boy DJ LeMaheui compliments Castro better anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
