Astros look close to trading Kyle Tucker to the Cubs. Seven divisional championships in the last eight years, two World Series wins and two more league pennants. With Tucker out and Bregman likely to leave via free agency, the Astros' dominant run may be over.
Trade is done. Cubs traded Isaac Paredes, Hayden Wesneski, and Cam Smith for Tucker.
Some fans are worried cause Tucker is opting for free agency after the season, but this is the shot in the arm the Cubs needed. Tucker is the best position player they've had since 2015-17 Kris Bryant. I'm ecstatic.

Had to be done. Once they traded for Tucker, there was no room for Cody. Cody was great his first year, but the production last year didn't match his contract. I imagine he'll pick it up and hit like gangbusters at Yankee Stadium. Very likable guy that's easy to root for.
Edit: I read that they are only on the hook for 2.5 million for this year and next year if Cody opts in with the Yankees. Earlier reports were saying the Yankees wanted them to pay 12 million of the salary, so this is huge and makes the trade an even one imo.

He's finally going to be at the Cubs convention. I'm really happy. Sammy was incredible and shouldn't be forgotten or blacklisted.

I am reasonably confident you just made those names up.
