Podcast: Does Seiya really need to be in a Tucker trade?
It only makes sense if the Cubs plan to throw big money at Tucker
The Cubs are trying to trade for Astros star Kyle Tucker and Tom Loxas joins the podcast as the guys try to figure out why Seiya would need to be in that deal. And, if the Cubs aren’t hell bent on keeping Tucker beyond 2025, does it even make the Cubs better if they trade Seiya to the Astros and Cody Bellinger to anywhere? They also discuss why this is exactly the kind of move the Cubs need to make, what prospects might be involved and how Houston has had the hots for Isaac Paredes for a while. They also wonder if the Bears awful performance in San Francisco puts Ryan Poles’ job in jeopardy and includes clues on who the new head coach might end up being. All that and more.
