So you think the deal was a good one for the Cubs? Kimbrel was terrible for the Cubs after he joined them. Then he was lights out and the Cubs did well to trade him. This is a trade to win NOW for the Sox. See
Adolis Chapman in 2016.
You were critical of Madrigal when the Hoerner comparison hit this board. Now you got him. Like him better now? I backed Madrigal and still think he is a better player than Hoerner. I am not a fan of the deal from a Sox perspective but at least they are trying to win while the team on the other side of town pulled a 85 Bears on the City.
It’s funny how great the cub players are in cubbie blue and such bums out of it
I think the former Cubs looked really good yesterday.
I like Madrigal but never liked him as a top draft pick. That said, nobody in that draft stood out as a better choice. So I’m ok w losing him and looking for another 2B with a little more power.
