I'll wait till it hits mlbtraderumors or espn. I don't believe garza is all we're getting if that's true.

and if it is true, then it better be complete with a new 5/$60M deal with the Cubs picking up half :laugh3:

4 chicago sports writers have said "It will be Olt, Edwards, Ramirez, & 2 others"

any of them put that in writing on the web? I can't find any instance of it.

Even when we got lee we at least got Lowe with him for four players. I refuse to believe JD is giving up a 5 player package that includes Olt for 2 months of garza.

Now other people are confirming it. 5 rangers for garza. I am not shitting you guys.

I could honestly see it... Its more "quantity" over "quality" IMO.

To be fair, Garza should command an "A level" prospect. Everything I'm seeing, no "A level" types are being offered.

Olt has lost some value. No longer a type "A" IMO. (like he was last season at this time)
So its probably a mixture of B & C level prospects.



......Maybe a Garza extension is thrown in too? :lol:

Or if it is 5 players for Garza, there will be a kicker in case he doesn't resign with Texas. No idea if that is totally legal, but teams have returned players before.

I hope hambomb is right. Getting Rios is the only way we could justify this in my opinion. I'll hold my tongue on the twitter updates for now... just was getting frustrated at the reports that were coming out (and understandably so)
