- The Cubs get another Cub, in Schwarber. A nice grab of MLB talent, at manageable salaries. - The Athletics continue to add young talent, and reduce salary in this deal. Altuve just signed with the Cubs on July 2nd. Morel is ranked #26 in the Cub's minors. Thompson is ranked #27 in the Cub's minors.
It appears to me that the Cubs are getting the best of the deal, with MLB talent with contracts through 2020, and 2022. Only time, will tell. The A's experience in the league, along with proven trading prowess, nudges me to approve the deal.

Cubs agree to the trade. Good negotiating from the A’s. Cubs add a Cub OF bat to replace the guys I may be losing after the season and a valuable relief arm signed multi year. I have organizational depth at C and needed to agree on a couple prospects ranked in system to match value received.
