Dodgers don't have the prospects to get Garza

Is anyone else deeply ambivelent about trading Garza? Say you
could get Lee and Webster from the Dodgers for him...maybe, in 3
years, one of them is almost as good as Garza is now.
Frankly given his age and contract status and stuff, I'd prefer
the Cubs just kept him (unless his personality is annoying as
hell to his teammates, which seems possible).

What did I miss?
How was Garza taken out of the picture?

His injury probably caused other teams to be cautious, at least
for now.

While comparing the Dempster situation to the Maddux situation
is silly to begin with, it's interesting that Miles - who indeed
is normally the best of the Cubs beat writers - had some factual
errors in there, whatever you think of his opinion. Most
glaring is that Dempster didn't scuttle a deal "for a AAA
prospect". Delgado is a major-league pitcher.

I see no reason to trade Garza now at a discount. If he pitches
well for the rest of the season, trade him at full value over
the winter. It wouldn't be as much as we'd hoped, but it'd
still be more than what we'd get trading him as an injury risk
now.

Jim Bowden chimes in on Dempster:
‏@JimBowdenESPNxm
Jason Vargas trade value climbs...James Shields declines while
Dempster to Dodgers progresses
Given that it's coming from Bowden, all hopes for deal with
Dodgers dashed. ;)

If we trade Garza this winter, does he still retain the benefit
to his new team of having a comp pick attached to him?

Isn't the wording in the CBA such that his new team would get a
comp pick?

That's what I'm asking/hoping.
