Cubs trade Carlos Zambrano to Marlins for Chris Volstad

[Rice Cube]

Well, this was sort of unexpected, yet expected, if you know what I mean.

This is surprising that they were able to deal him so early, but not surprising who he is being dealt to. Maybe LoMo is coming back to us in this deal PWEASE ray:

You wish :lol:

Not paying him 18 million next year would be a nice enough return for me...

Given that we are likely eating a fair bit of the money, I would like to see something in return for him.

 

[ZDemp34]

Not surprised. He and Ozzie still wanna be in the same city.

 

[dabynsky]

I wish this could be another Todd Hundley situation, but I doubt we can make that one happen again.

 

[bleacherbum54]

best move Theo has made so far if true.

 

[Jntg4]

I want Gaby Sanchez, Logan Morrison, and Mike Stanton, or no deal.

Yes, and yes.

 

[dabynsky]

I wonder if this move takes them out of the running for Garza or not.

Also if the Cubs cut Soriano maybe the Cubs could finally just be bad at baseball and we don't have to invent reasons for the team playing poorly such as *insert hispanic player's name* here doesn't try hard enough.

I'd imagine we'll eat close to 75% of his salary and hopefully get something decent in return. LoMo would be awesome to throw in the outfield with Brett Jackson.

You're not getting Logan Morrison in return even if you pay all of Z's salary. He literally has negative trade value.

I know that. You know what, you're right.... I'd settle for Mike Stanton. Or uh, you know, any kind of building block. ray:

 

[Shawon0Meter]

Sorta forgot about Big Z

What are you smoking, and are you sharing?

 

[zlarson]

Marlins to acquire Carlos Zambrano?

Addition by substation baby! Glad to see him go.

 

[JosMin]

What are you smoking, and are you sharing?

I'll gladly share, but only if you let me roll up a little of Big Z's jersey to celebrate him (hopefully) finally leaving town. Honestly, him going to the Marlins makes sense. Him and Ozzie will have a nice bromance down there.

But seriously, I wonder what the Marlins are willing to offer in return? I'm looking for links that leak anything, but haven't been able to get any information yet.
