4/29/24 | Chicago Cubs Rumors: Justin Verlander trade makes too much sense. Last week, when the Chicago Cubs swept the Houston Astros, they may very well have forced them into the sellers' market when the trade deadline comes around. Jed Hoyer is on record as having regrets about not claiming Justin Verlander on waivers in 2017 and trying to work out a trade. The Astros would, of course, go on to trade for Verlander that same season and win the World Series a few months later. Jed Hoyer always gets his guy, even if it comes years after the time in which he originally wanted that guy, just ask Julio Teheran. Source: https://cubbiescrib.com/posts/chicago-cubs-rumors-... |
