I’ve decided to stir the pot a bit early this year. After all, the MLB trade deadline has been bumped up, so I’d better start assessing possible trades earlier. In all reality, it would be nice if mid-July saw the Cubs playing .580 baseball, but I somewhat doubt that will be the case. If the Cubs are languishing in mediocrity in late June or early July, expect a few “veteran for prospect” types of trades. This article looks at the Philadelphia Phillies system for possible trade matches for Craig Kimbrel, if that sort of exchange makes sense then.
If the Cubs make July trades, what could they get for Craig Kimbrel?
