Let's test that.  I would not trade a valuable future piece for Price.  That is under the assumption that the Cubs will not sign price either as a free agent or as a "home team discount".

The Cubs have at best a 6.25 percent chance to win the world series IF you assume that they are equal in talent to the other teams they will face.  Price MIGHT raise that to 10 percent.

No, I would not make that trade today.  Perhaps because I value Torrez more than you seem to.

Theo, every GM in the game, everyone else on this board, the entire Ricketts family, and Daury Torrez's mother would all make that trade, even if it was an absolute certainty Price would be nothing more than a rental and the Cubs would not resign him.

I had thought there was some confusion from you at the time and that you meant Gleyber Torres, but if you meant Daury Torrez, you may be the only one on the planet who values him that highly.



I am NOT ignorant.


Hmmmmmmm......
