Prospects that you will complain about because they aren’t on a
top 100 list and then in a few years you’ll like? Which will
beat getting 3 years of Jensen that the Cubs won’t help the
Cubs.

If #BlueJays were in on Benintendi, makes sense they'd be in on
Ian Happ as well.
Keep an eye on RHP Nick Frasso.
23 years old, TJ surgery June 2021, 10 starts since, up to 98,
slider has been tweaked, funky angles.
#Cubs had a scout in Vancouver for Frasso's start on 7/26.
I understand that team X being at player Y's start doesn't mean
they're getting him if the deal is done.
But Cubs just drafted Horton off TJ, and acquired injured
players at last year's deadline.
If the "let's add stuff" motto from the draft carries over,
Frasso makes sense.
Also from today in the Dan Syzmborski chat
Guest: How can we expect the Cubs return for Happ to compare to
Benintendi’s return? Twice as much? Three times?
Dan Szymborski: I hate multiplicatives of prospect value! It
feels a bit like subtracting temperatures
Dan Szymborski: But nothing in the Benintendi trade makes me
think t hey’ll get anything drastically different from what I
suggested in my piece
Dan Szymborski: (which was a 45 and a couple 40s; Benintendi
fetched a 40+, a 40, and an unranked)
Zach: I’ve heard a lot lately about how teams have a system that
assigns value to players, similar to baseballtradevalues.com. I
assume this is purely on-field production, so how does a team
also value the future monetary value a player brings in based on
their stardom?
Dan Szymborski: It depends on the team, really.

Dan Szymborski: I don’t have exact specifics, but I hear enough
from teams that I can make educated guesses
12:17
Dan Szymborski: Most, I believe, are a bit less rigit than
baseballtradevalues
Appa Yip Yip: Package around Jordan Groshans for Ian Happ make
sense?
Dan Szymborski: That’s about the type of player I can see the
Cubs getting a few of
12:42
Dan Szymborski: White Sox fans were mad that I cleared a chunk
of their top 10 list
12:42
Dan Szymborski: but those names are only in the top 10 because
the sox system is very very very weak at the top
12:43
Dan Szymborski: But Groshans/Eden/Frasso or something?
Fun with coincidences. I’m not a fan of Groshans, but that is
probably what you are looking at. It wouldn’t surprise me to
see the Cubs go for a younger, higher upside lead piece than
Groshans though.

Andy Martino (New York reporter)
Preliminary talks can accelerate quick this time of years. One
source said to keep and eye on Mets/Cubs over next 36 hours or
so.

No idea how reliable he is.
Mike Vasil might be a kinda interesting secondary piece.

a Juan Soto trade for. Talks have intensified since last night.

Padres won’t have the money to sign him. It would be a trillion
dollars in Tatis, Machado, Soto. It would be one of the better
outcomes for the Cubs. Just to fit in in Soto’s salary they
probably have to cut salary as well, if the farm has anything
left the Cubs would seem to be the destination for that.

It's a bad outcome for the Cubs in the sense that they're the
most interesting trade partner we have for Happ and Contreras,
and maybe even a reliever.
