 Let's flip the script here and Frank let's look at the Cubs because they're pitching outside of John Lester has not been good Okay, you Darvish they kind of expected him back this weekend He goes out and feels something in the bullpen his triceps bug him They called off now. We don't know when he's coming back you Darvish now Now what does that mean for the Cubs going forward? But this is nothing new he had these problems in Texas He won a deal once with the Dodgers last year They got to keep him healthy somehow but they're gonna regret losing Jake Arietta because Jake Arietta lit his pitching staff But when you get a free agent in you just don't know his personnel then right now They're seeing set back at the setback. They need his arm. They need a power arm. I don't know what they're gonna do I think they need to make a move with the deadline just for security I agree Frank and a couple things there number one when you sign a free agent to this type of a contract You are obviously choosing him over your other options You've invested all this money in him You at least have to have him be on the mound and take the ball now You're in a spot where you may have to invest even more resources in a trade for a starting pitcher Which hurts what you could do to help your lineup if it's a Manny Machado idea or somebody else But you think about the Cubs in general they've had to give up Glaber Torres in 2016 for Chapman They gave up the big package to get Jose Quintana last year Mm-hmm They've given a lot of capital away to help their team in trades the last couple years You start to wonder how much they have left and how impactful of a move can they even make based on the prospects they start I don't think they can think offensive that you do you I mean do you know not at all I mean I don't think I think I just think the dynasty is now the windows now They got a win now so go out and make the move that gets you over the top especially if you try to win another I'm with you I think they need help there and we'll see the Cubs and Theo Epstein go and get that's too quick things first of all Sandy Alderson best wishes to him who is a good man battling cancer and he steps away for a little bit That's why Rico's in charge What's talking about the Mets and these two stud pitches Frank Mets are a disaster right now. They are long gone What about their pitchers and synagogue underground? Do you think they're on the move should they put them on the move? Either make one move sign the Grom make him a career met if not Trade this guy for future franchise pieces. It's 30 years old You can get a haul for him right now because this guy's a game changer It could help someone to win a World Series right now bottom line is if you're not gonna sign him I would trade him because you can get a haul sit in the guard You can make a trade for him But it's gonna be buyers beware because he's averaging about 15 starts the season right when he's out there Lights out for the bottom line as you can't win in the tub I don't know if the halls gonna be the same with send the guard But I would take a team by the Chicago White Sox who has so many expendable pieces Trade and get both of them give them what they need their franchise pieces and get you two aces at the top of your lineup And keep the ones that you want in Chicago because we know who they are the French Back in it Frank is replacing me as the inside His ideas are better than mine But it is a great idea because sometimes Frank we talk so much about the deadline buyers and sellers It's not a binary situation or because if you're a team like the White Sox building for the future These are future pieces and if you think you can win in 2020 in the in the ale center Which I think the White Sox can by the way then to ground fits that window, right? So that's why teams that we're not thinking about as being real active buyers Can play on these two pitchers cinder guard and to ground that being said I checked with a Metsource today And was told we're gonna have to be overwhelmed to move to Grom in particular and I understand that and you think about it Kevin and the reason why Frank's idea is so great is that the traditional buyers out there He's not gonna get trade to the Yankees unless something really no way extraordinary happens Same thing in division with the Braves and the Phillies So it really cuts down the number of viable seller buyers rather to make that trade for the wrong Milwaukee is one possibility I think Milwaukee they could have gotten Quintana last year They did not this is their second chance to make that impact long-term Frank to piggyback off your point of I'm the Mets who need Just a facelift. I trade Cinder guard get as much as you can and then I signed the ground tool to a deal now He's got two more years under control right, but you kind of tell the fans Hey look we want to win, but we got to change this up a little bit, but I like that idea too. We'll see we'll see what happens
