Cubs Deal For Rockies Stewart

[Trendy Bastard]

Cubs deal Tyler Colvin an DJ Lemahieu for Ian Stewart and Casey Weathers

I'll post a link and reaction when I get home from work

[Kingdom]

Reclamation project swap.

[Trendy Bastard]

I get the Colvin/Stewart part of it, but dont see why we included DJ and Weathers.

Hopefully Weathers will regain his control and pitch like he did before TJS.

[Kingdom]

Is Lamaheiu a top prosect?

[Kingdom]

Or, you know, prospect.

[Trendy Bastard]

Not a top prospect, but still a prospect. He's got great contact skills, but won't ever have much power. Streaky with the OBP.

I'm not necessarily upset about him being traded. I just think we could have used him as a piece in a trade that is better than this.

[Kingdom]

I'll be interested to see if either Stewart or Colvin can be an impact player that they once were. It wasn't even that long ago Colvin had a good rookie season splitting with Fukudome and etc etc.

[Trendy Bastard]

I can see both regaining some form. Coors should do Colvin wonders.

It's not a bad deal as long as the Cubs get a decent insurance policy at 3B.
