As @MLBBruceLevine reported, Cubs are on the verge of acquiring Dexter Fowler from Houston.

Wonder if they'll be giving up one of their better prospects for him.

Baez, anyone? Castro?

The trade of Luis Valbuena opens third base up for baseball's top prospect, Kris Bryant. Likely will arrive sometime in May, if not sooner.

As an Astros fan, not sure what I think of this.

Love this deal for the Cubs. Valbuena is a nice utility guy, but Fowler is a legitimate leadoff guy. Tough to find that. Straily is AAAA pitcher.

This is all exactly what I am afraid of.

Great trade for the Cubs. Big improvement in the OF with Fowler and didn't give up much.
