A Look at Who the Cubs Should Trade in the Offseason...

These are players that could be traded:

1) Aaron Heilman: He has not help the Cubs at all and should be on his way out of town,

Teams that could be interested: Giants, Mets, White Sox, Angels and other teams desperate for bullpen help.

2) Mike Fontenot: He has put up crappy numbers since he was inserted into the starting roll at second base.

Teams that could be interested: Mets, Giants, Dodgers, Mariners, Tigers, Indians.

3) Milton Bradley: He has put up a bad average but his OBP is close to .400 and that is hard to replace. The bas part is the Cubs will have to pay most of his contract.

Teams that could be interested: White Sox, Red Sox, Angels, Tigers, Marlins.

4) Jeff Baker: His stock has gone up as he continues to hit but I see Fontenot being traded before him.

Teams that could be interested: Any team that needs a bench player or a fill in until there starter comes back.

5) Jake Fox: He can hit but can't feld, I see DH.

Teams that could be interested: Any team that needs a DH.

Those are some names I can think of that may be traded and who might be interested.

  1. i think it would be easier to trade away fukudome than bradley, that would free up more money for a player like figgins or a solid reliever

  2. Yah It would because you will most likely not have to eat much salary but he is one of the best CF defender. They probably could get good prospects or Players in return.

  3. if we trade fukudome out of center, that gives us more freedom to sign figgins and maybe play him in center doesnt it?

  4. If we trade fukudome out of center, that gives us more freedom to sign figgins and have the option of playing him in CF or at 2nd doesnt it?

  5. It does but if you trade you will lose a good defender and good arm which Figgins does not have. I gue if you get a team to take on his whole contract ans get good players in return do it then.

    That will then free up money to go after another outfielder or another player.
