A progressed Altuve for a tweener pitcher and Dustin Pedroia-light. Could work. Sounds good. Now this is a very solid idea. Eddie Rosario and Aaron Hicks/Jose Berrios/Max Kepler for Jordan Lyles makes a ton of sense. You get a new 2B in Rosario and take your pick of their second tier pitching/OF prospects. They get a mid rotation guy who's relatively cheap to go along with whoever is still standing from Diamond/Hendriks/Gibson/Meyer/May. Heck they just did two deals like this trading a position player (Span and Revere) for young pitching.

Rosario has been traded too unfortunately because I like this deal.
I have looked at the cubs and they could really use a pitcher.

Maybe Lyles to the cubs for Ronald Torreyes (2B
Low B), Eduardo Sanchez(mid B RP), SP Dillon Maples 22 yrs old (mid B)
I could also throw in Josh Fields (mid B RP) if need be but I hope Lyles is worth this

Wait.. didn't you post this a few pages ago?

Lyles for Torreyes/Vogelbach could work

Well I would rather try to get these 3 guys but if I can only have two I would want Torreyes and Sanchez. But could I get all 3?

You'd probably have to give them someone.

Three weeks in, and I lose Michael Saunders for 2 months+. The one position where I don't have depth (Guttierez is fine, but that leaves me with Morse/Ibanez/Bay for the other two spots). I'm already playing Morse at RF, and I'm gonna give Ibanez/Bay a shot for right now, but if you could suggest good (and relatively cheap to acquire) outfielders I should keep an eye on in the upcoming weeks, that would be great. I'm looking for a Saunders-type of player. Someone I can put pretty much anywhere in the line-up, with good speed, good defense and somewhat decent bat. Morse's defense scares me, so if it's someone I could eventually keep in the outfield when Saunders comes back, that would be ideal.

Congrats on finding your team! That's always step 1.

Some guys you could plug in for Saunders:
Hmmm. Alejandro De Aza (White Sox), Lorenzo Cain (Royals), Nolan Reimold (O's), Matt Joyce (Rays), Will Venable (Padres), Nate Schierholtz (Cubs), Logan Schafer (Brewers), Travis Snider (Pirates), Justin Ruggiano (Marlins), John Mayberry Jr. (Phillies)

Ummm, Davis ok. Bourjos, probably not. GOMEZ!!!!! Lol, leading the league in WAR is hardly an injury sub type 4th OF.

OK, well I am a HUGE irrational Ronald Torreyes fan and HATED that they traded him for bonus money, but you are fleecing yourself here. The Cubs would love to have a young, cheap Lyles-type pitcher. And, in return, you are asking for a waiver pickup, a guy dealt for bonus money, and a high draft pick who has shown absolutely NOTHING so far in pro ball except he has an incredible propensity to get hurt. You can ask for more.

Not enough from the Cubs. Vogelbach would be a nice add, but for Lyles, there would have to be at least 1 other piece.
