We’re in the final week heading into the trade deadline and so far, the Cubs have only traded away Joc Pederson. I have a feeling that this week is going to be busy around here, which is why I’m heading to the beach on Wednesday and Thursday.
- The Padres made a big move on Sunday acquiring Pirates second baseman Adam Frazier for three minor leaguers: infielder Tucupita Marcano, outfielder Jack Suwinski and right-handed pitcher Michell Miliano. That’s not terrible, but it’s not a ton for an All-Star with a year and a half of control left.
