Could the Cubs trade Cody Ballinger even after he declined his option to become a free agent? Well, sure, they could. The question is what his trade value actually is. Luckily, Tom Loxas is on hand to discuss that, why the Cubs aren’t well positioned for Roki Sasaki, and who could they actually trade for to give their offense a boost? They also discuss Ian Happ getting yet another Gold Glove and how he really doesn’t belong in the category of Cubs 3x winners. And, then it’s on to the Cubs to discuss Shane Waldron getting fired, how this affects Caleb Williams, who’s gonna replace The Flus, and why this was all so avoidable. Then, why all the cool kids are heading to Blue Sky.

I’m not happy with Bill Simmons being involved in this, but I’ll bet even he couldn’t make this suck.
