The Cubs could have interest in OF Brad Hawpe.

I don't see us adding anything in the OF.

It's actually a 1B option. Hawpe would play 1B. I like him as a 4th OF and the back-up 1B. Then, trade a C for Davis. Their both lefties, but I'll be find with that.

He's a good stopgap at the very least.

This
He's a AAAA player who strikes out more than Adam Dunn

But is cheap (in $), won't cost much (in prospects), and is young.

We all thought Casey McGehee sucked too in 2008.

He did. You are basing your point off of a very very rare case. Frankly, that's stupid as shit. No one saw that coming and we had no where to play him. Unless you think we should have gotten rid of Ramirez, in which case you are a fucking moron.

I never said that. All I said is that if all we have to give up is Chrinos or Castillo, both of whom are blocked by Soto, to acquire a young 1B, then it's worth a shot.

Not really. He sucks. Chirinos or Castillo can at least be back-ups. I might consider giving up Chirinos, but I really don't think you see that Davis sucks. He's awful. He's Micah Hoffpauir 2.0
