Reply to "Trades"

As a Cubs fan, I can attest to a team giving up a lot to get a lot, even for a rental. In 2016, the Cubs gave up their #1 prospect and #2 overall MLB prospect to get a rental in Aroldis Chapman. Gleyber Torres was called up earlier this year by the Yanks and looks like he has the anticipated "star potential" in the making. But I'd do that trade 100 out of 100 times. The Cubs gave up a lot in the future, but they don't win the World Series in 2016 without Chapman.

Sometimes to gotta strike when the iron's hot....before the window closes. Too many metaphors?
