There’s no trade the fans are going to like for Contreras ... if it happens 

Agreed. 

Someone on another site suggested Adams and Sandoval for Contreras, which I could definitely live with. I don't think that gets it done though. Marsh and Sandoval probably gets talks started.

I follow the cubs pretty closely.  Not nearly as closely as I follow the halos of course, but Willson is decent point of frustration for subs fans just so everyone knows.  Again, as I've mentioned, he's a nice player and I don't want people to think I'm trying to insinuate that he's a bad player by any stretch, but he doesn't handle the staff all that well and he's not a great framer.  I think his fWAR over the last 4 years is pretty accurate that he's a 2-2.5 win.  

There's not a chance I would give up Marsh for that.

Not a chance in Hell that I want to take on the remaining $30M of Kimbrel's contract, given the way that he stunk it up after arriving in Chicago - let alone also surrender starting pitching in a deal like this.

Yeah I revised that initial trade to exclude Heaney once I looked at values. I think Jones is enough of a prospect along with Rengifo and Cozart. Maybe a Barria.That seems light but it’s not if they take on Kimbrell

We don't need a $30M batting practice pitcher in the bullpen. We already have to pay Pujols for two more years. Along with Cozart, there is enough dead money on the 25-man without taking on more.
