They have to be thrilled to death with Robertson. He is lights out and everyone needs a great 1 inning guy in the pen. He is also not phased by pitching in a save, non save, 8th inning role. He has no mental block there. They should be able to get a very good prospect for him.
Stro would absolutely help a win now team so maybe someone pays high.
Cubs should clean up in the trade deadline this year if they want to. They might want to keep some guys though....like Wily. Catchers like that dont come around every day.
heard a cubs expert on yesterday with rosenbloom - i don't remember what was said about strohman, but the good news is that he believes the cubs will try and move wisdom and ortega (for anything) and 1B matt mervis just got promoted to iowa and the cubs love him. so, rivas will likely stay (he's terrible, but he's cheap) as the back-up and schwinnie and his ADHD ABs will be gone next year. he also says contreras is as good as gone as amaya just came back and had a 3 hit game for AA Tenn as a DH in his first game back. cubs can split gomes & p.j. higgins at C if necessary the rest of the year.
