A ton of people were saying how bad the trade was when Morel hit 2 HR in his first game with TB. He has now played 26 games for TB, has a total of 3HR with them and a .177 average with them.
Ifffff Morel becomes a Superstar, as many expect, Hoyer has just dug his own tomb. No team will hire him for a similar job, with a similar market as the Cubs, if the Ricketts decide not to extend his contract after next season.
I’m honestly more sad to see Bigge go than Morel but happy that we’re getting a much better defensive player at third base for years to come and a guy that strikes out a lot less with a higher OPS. The Rays will turn Bigge into an elite closer.
This blindsided me completely...thought this was an offseason trade and Morel would be a part...but not the main part. Great trade for the Cubs...even if it doesn't work out because they still have all their best prospects.
Morel reminds me of Baez the way he swings out of his shoes
I like this trade!
I was crying when it happened too my 2nd fav cub 😢
Sane, he was my second, Nico is first
Great move for the Cubs, I'm sending my condolences to your wife. 😂

Paredes has been rough at the plate as well, but I have more confidence that Paredes will find his groove
Let's go!!!

So, I suppose that means the Cubs are buying...
@@Roger.R.M.A. not rentals. They have to have more than this year left of control or contract
Tell your wife I feel her pain and I cried too. I have been angry since I heard the news.
Grow up

I have CERO faith in these “kids” from Iowa. I hope they proof me wrong.
