Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t find sense in cutting loose Neil aramirez and essentially replacing him with Joel Peralta a week later.

Yes it’s just you. People keep speaking of the old neil ramirez not the post injury neil ramirez

I think Ramirez had issues, lost a couple miles an hour on his fastball, the Brewers dumped him pretty quick too… I think his window for being a quality reliever is closing.

Minor League Deals don’t require 25 Man roster spots.

I agree Neil Ramieze was ten time better but he wasn’t going to clear waivers but yet Theo held on to a guy like Richards cause he was a sorry lefty – Cub fans cringe when seeing him even warm up so Peralta better than Richard cups half filled but it was full w/Neil

Boy are they desperate or what?

Bummer, thought Peralta would be a good fit with Giants

Not just you. For the Cubs its Championship or bust. Peralta, IF, he even performed well, wild be the least reliable in their bullpen. Minus, RichArd. Giving Alcantara for Coghlan was an overpay. And unless you’re acquiring Miller or Chapman….just stand pat.

Alcantara was an overpay huh? According to his MLB the Show rating? He’s blocked anywhere you look at it. They already have Ben Zobrist and Javy Baez is being the Zobrist of the team! Now if you wanna talk overpay of trades between the Cubs and A’s, then look back to July 3 2014.

And I prefer Chapman. The guy throws 101-103!! You just about CAN NIT hit that! 7th Strop
8th Chapman
9th Rondon
OR
7th Strop
8th Rondon
9th Chapman
MAKES FOR A VEY SHORT GAME. Give him Vogelbach and Candelario . Even a third player. And we’ve got money, re-sign him for 4yrs-52mil and you’ve got him and Rondon at the back end of your bullpen while you’re making these championship runs the next few years

We’re not spending a dollar next year Free Agent not even on The great Fowler . Look for more kids getting a shot . Here in this organization not a bad ideal.
