I'd feel a lot better about the deal if Ferris' medicals/future prognosis significantly drop his odds to be a starter, because he's got TOR stuff, obviously location issues until he had a window of brilliance pre-TJ at Arkansas.
Otherwise I get the trade but I'm not too fond of it. The dodgers know when to get rid of prospects and when to keep them, and unlike the cubs who have only seen recent returns, the Dodgers know how to develop pitching. And for them to covet Busch for a couple years/not deal him when teams ask for him in deals only then get rid of him like that...I'm skeptical and my initial feeling is the cubs got fleeced. The cubs need a 3B and the kid has checked boxes in the minors you'd want to see progression-wise. Now its time to do it in the bigs.
Mix that with how for years I've screamed for Jed/Theo to draft a true power arm that can consistently hit upper 90s in a sea of their preferred soft tossing arms who throw 90-93 and can 'touch' 96. Then they took this kid, also a lefty, a move I gave them immense credit for.
Seems like the cubs win short term, but if Ferris becomes a power arm, TOR starter as was his ceiling, this can be a lopsided, ugly-looking trade that can be an all-timer in terms of being bad. Plus LA can rake in more money selling 'Ferris' and 'Buehler' in their rotation.
