Re: Trade Deadline Thread
Arodys Vizcaino was rated Baseball America's #40 prospect before 2012 and Jaye Chapman has 10.1 SO/9 this year in AAA. Chapman's 25 while Vizcaino is 21. I think Vizcaino comes back from TJ and is fine. I like the deal, and think its worth the risk.Last edited by k_mac; 07-30-2012, 10:58 PM.Comment

Re: Trade Deadline Thread
Vizcaino can't stay healthy, so the Cubs will have to wait 1+ years, plus possibly fixing his motion to keep him on the field. That amount of time is a long time in Baseball.
Chapman does have a lot of strikeouts, but he also has 4 BB/9 and gives up almost 1 hit / inn. 25 years old also doesn't help him.
The Braves robbed the Cubs right now, in 2 years check back and see if Vizcaino has pitched yet in MLB.Comment

Also, Chapman is no slouch. He's been pretty good the last two years and over his whole minor league career.
I think the trade is about even right now. It gives the Cubs exactly what they want, young pitching, and gives the Braves exactly what they need.Comment
