Hate to see Freddy go but after making all star team this year now is the time to max value. You should be able to fill the hole at short or 3rd. If you can't extend him.
Give the Cubs credit man. They went out and did what needed to be done. Spent money to get offense. Then Armstrong made the leap and now they are ready to roll. Brewers could do the same thing if they wanted but have chosen not to. I respect it.
