I'm in my first season with the Cubs. Thus far, we're last in the NL Central (19-29). During the season, I have made two trades:
Alfonso Soriano, MR Jin-Young Kim, and cash considerations to NY Yankees for MR Shawn Kelley
The move provides me flexibility in both the financial and personnel realms. Brett Jackson is now platooning in CF with Dave Sappelt.
Matt Garza to Philadelphia Phillies for C Sebastian Valle (.327/.376/.533 in AA), MR Phillippe Aumont, and cash.
I found a few intriguing prospects in my farm system besides Soler and Baez. For example, my legendary scout is in love with A Kane County CF Albert Almora (4 1/2 star potential). The 19 year old has a .311/.382/.567 line.
It should be an interesting couple of seasons before I'm able to turn this franchise into a contender.
