You would have to blow them away for deGrom. The reference point is the Sale trade and we don't have those kinds of assets. Yes, it's 2 1/2 years of control vs 3 years for Sale but the concept is the same. I think it would take a top half farm system's 1 and 2 plus 3 other minor league players. One of the MLB Radio hosts said that any Dodgers offer for deGrom would have to start with Buehler and Verdugo and that makes sense.
I 0nly mentioned Happ because IF the Cubs do make a major trade, i think the only rostered position player theyll move is Happ or maybe Russell .
They would obviously have to add in some prospects..
Be interesting to see what they do..
Right now i look at Darvish like a 2nd half acquisition because he missed most of 1st half..
So hed be like a new SP to the rotation
I think theyll go after relievers if anything, but who knows maybe they shock us with something big..
Biggest key to the whole 2nd half and playoff success is going to be what they get out of Darvish Hendricks and Quintana going forward
