Our loss is Chicago's gain, and to the fans in Chicago I can tell you, he's easy to love, take good care of him. Wishing all the best to Kyle and Samantha . ( i'm sad)
Those deals never work out. They just make you feel secure in the moment. Go all out for a superstar. He’s a good player but definitely not a superstar
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 yeah I know they’ve been trying to trade belli since the offseason started. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s moved by Monday. If he is I think we should sign Pete Alonso and hopefully get pitching from belli trade.
@@NixLikesTheCubs yea I don't know about Alonso, I'm a Yankees and Astros fan, so both of my teams are in the market for a 1B. He obviously has a huge up side, but he also strikes out a ton, and is coming off a not so great season. Pretty great by reasonable standards, but not up to his standard.
Honestly imo not a super terrible trade. Issac Paredes is a really solid player and I think he will do really well in Houston. I did a little digging into the minor leaguers stats and Cam Smith is hitting really well in the minor leagues. Not much power but a reliable person to get on base. Hayden Wesneski is pretty mid but our pitching staff was able to turn around kikuchi season so maybe it will be the same case with him. Super sad to see king tuck go but I am optimistic about this trade
@scottwaldo might mean Bregman is walking too though. Paredes could also play 1B or even outfield, so it's not like they can't have both of them, but I have a feeling he's gonna be Bregman's replacement.
Tucker was said to be the best player the astros had…better hope Paredes doesn’t become Abreu 2.0…also the majors and the minors are two very different ball games but, enjoy!
@@Andrew-kx2ek doing well in the minor leagues means he's developing lil bro Also, I think what people need to understand is that the astros need some young talent in their roster. Even if that means letting bregman walk I feel its necessary.
The Astros have been trying to extend his contract for the last couple of years, but the Astros don't do deals over 5-6 years so he's clearly wanting to test the free agent market for one of those massive contracts.
Great move for the Cubs, they should extend him now and make him the star they build around. Now go get a legit closer and one more starter and theyre set
I don’t think Seiya is going anywhere. If Shaw can play third, I’d be fine keeping Nico. Agree we need to shore up the bullpen and get another strong starter to be legit. Let’s Go!
What is Chicago doing? He's a FA after the season and it's become obvious they don't want to pay anyone long term. Giving up players with years left of team control isnt very smart.
Jessie, Jessie, Jessie. Cam Smith is not in Single A ball. He finished last year in AA, and has a strong chance to play in AAA in the 2nd half of this season.
We got Cam in the trade he has the potential to be even a better hitter than Tucker. Plus we get Paredes and a Pitcher. This is a very good trade for the Astros who have no one ready in a depleted miner system.
@gradyjones7017 people throw that word around w every trade. They got two decent major leaguers and a top prospect for a good not great player who’s gonna be with the cubs for only 1 yr
With *Tucker* joining, *Suzuki’s* chances of playing as an outfielder are gone. But will he stay on as a DH, despite previously expressing dissatisfaction about not playing defense? If he does stay, the Cubs’ lineup will truly be formidable.😮
@@ernestmaturan1389 If the Dodgers can’t keep Teoscar, they should go after Suzuki. He was the Cubs’ best hitter this season and had the highest OPS among NL outfielders.
Bien por Paredes es muy dificil jugar en Chicago con ese vientecito de casi diario. Houston busca algo bueno bonito y barato para suplir a Bergham que quiere mas plata. Viva México
I think both teams got kinda shafted in a way, Cubs only have Tucker for a year unless they extend him, and the Astros didn't get a whole lot back. Makes me wonder if they're going to let Bregman walk too, Paredes will presumably be taking over 3B, unless they plan on moving him to 1B. Could be seeing the beginning of the end of the Astros dynasty.
@@Daniel-rc2buCam Smith is going to be better than Tucker just wait and see. Paredes should be a great fit in Houston and the pitcher they got just needs a little turning to become a very good pitcher.
Cubs are honestly cooked, Parades was someone they needed to drive it runs, wesneski is gonna be a really dang good pitcher and cam smith is a generational talent
Thats an awful take, Kyle replaces paredes offensive production and then some, wesneski hasn't proven much as he had about an average era last year and a 4.63 the year before that and cam smith has only played a handful of games at the double A stage. Imo the cubs won this trade but it was a good outcome for both sides
yordan is a one dimensional type of player compared to tucker…he’s only known for his hitting…at times that can be very unimpressive but…whatever makes u happy
@@spicegawd8956Like I said, whatever makes u happy with ur boy yordan…but, if I recall correctly, it didn’t do him any good in last season’s playoffs…especially getting swept right out of the playoffs but, oh well
We gave up too much. I expect the players we traded will be very good. I hope I’m wrong. All this for a year… Tucker will have all the leverage in free agency next offseason. I don’t like this move. I hope I’m wrong.
Nope great trade, Smith is one maybe three years away, in the meantime Peredes is a solid fill at 3b or 1b, Tucker is the legit power bat the cubs need to make a run this year if they keep Belli and Seiya, end of year maybe Cubs sign Tucker, if not plenty of great of prospects coming up.

Cubs! Drop that 450 million and extend KING TUCK today!! Lock him up! He is a 5 WAR player.
I would love that… It’s never happening
Those deals never work out. They just make you feel secure in the moment. Go all out for a superstar. He’s a good player but definitely not a superstar
He’s not worth not even half of that
As a Cubs fan I’m glad we didn’t give up too much. This is a great trade for us and them! Now let’s get some pitching.
Right!
Bellinger is likely to be traded though, so you basically just swapped him for Tucker.
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 yeah I know they’ve been trying to trade belli since the offseason started. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s moved by Monday. If he is I think we should sign Pete Alonso and hopefully get pitching from belli trade.

Les go 😁
If you guys make the playoffs next year.. good luck.. he disappears
I know bro as soon as he get a good offer he is gone in 0.00001 second
gonna miss Tuck but he’s gonna be too expensive and Paredes’s swing is gonna play very well in Houston’s park
Incredible trade for the astros Kyle Tucker is just a one year rental we couldn't extend a guy who would want 400 million
Great move! I do hope they keep Bellinger. He's a great fit with Tucker.
Kinda surprised that Kyle Tucker is leaving the Astros! He has been such a great player on that team!

WE DID SOMETHING GOOD FOR ONCE
And paredes was the only starter who didn’t matter for us
Good trade, but I wish we didn’t give up smith
Without Smith the Astros would not have done the trade. Cam Smith was the player Astros mostly wanted in this trade it was not Paredes.
@@TheLastBlackJaguar of course that goes without saying
Now, do Alonso.
They're NOT moving Suzuki. Not sure why he keeps mentioning it.
This is great. He is a great player who won't play against the Dodgers in the playoffs.

King Tuck 👑
Don't pull a "Cubs". Lock this guy in as soon as possible!
When are the Chicago Cubs going to get a closer?

Well at least the Yankees didn’t get him 😅
Rare occasion of the Astros fleecing someone
if youre making a projected cubs lineup, it would be a bit different than that. dansby is certianly not a 2 hitter and bellinger is probably gone
Dana Brown has got to go down as the worst GM in history
Fax I’m an Astros fan and to me he’s trying to make Houston worst

Not for this. Kyle Tucker is playoff choker and even though he’s a solid player I’m not sure he deserves the deal he wants.
@@Slayer-Josh it’s less about trading him and more what they got in return, the Astros got fleeced

Es posible que la dinastía de los Astros esté acabando😮
Apenas va comensar lo mas bueno ya veras cuando comiense a jugar Cam Smith. Y Paredes puede producir lo que Bregman produce en la offensiva.

Best move this club has made in quite some time. 👍🏻

Finally cubbies trade star lefty hitter
Trading saiya takes away a huge bat so I hope they are catering to him about DHing

So!

No way
Worst case Tuck get hurt. Healthy its a win. Back to sqaure 1 at 3rd base. It would b e Cub if Smith becomes Derick Jeeter.
