A thought occurred to me earlier. The cubs make some sense as a third wheel to a Tulo trade. For example, let's say ultimately the Mets go nuts and grab Tulo. For the sake of argument let's say the cost is Syndergaard and Matz plus. That leaves the rockies with Jon Gray(23), Tyler Matzek(23), Jordan Lyles(23), Eddie Butler(23), Tyler Anderson(24), Kyle Freeland(21) Syndergaard(22) and Matz(24). That is a lot of young pitching. In terms of hitting, colorado has Arenado, Dickerson and Rosario as all under 26 players but not much else. David Dahl(OF), Ryan McMahon(3B), Raimel Tapia(OF), and Forrest Wall(2B) are their 50+ rating hitting prospects.
It's entirely probably the Rockies would want to move some of that pitching for hitting. Vogelbach would likely interest them as they don't have much in the way of 1B. MI would also likely interest them. Even if the Rockies don't trade him to the Metz there's a good chance they will have pitching to deal
