The Tigers and Cubs Matt Garza rumors persist and the rumors are the Tigers are dangling top pitching prospect Jacob Turner in any deal. The deal would most likely have to be Turner plus two other prospects. I would also lose Turner in our AL only league too which would be a huge blow for me.
I don't get what the deal is with Matt Garza. He is a 3 starter at best, so why are we pretending that he is an ace. He has pitched over 200 innings twice in his career, never got over 200 Ks, has a 52 and 54 record and has a career era of 3.83. I would much rather have years of a stud prospect ready to pitch now than 2 years of a 29 year old Matt Garza.
Garza is highly overrated and the Cubs in general are now pissing me off. The Theo Epstein compensation is never coming, the Anthony Rizzo trade had collusion written all over it, they sign everyone who the Red Sox are interested in and are dicks.
