5@5: How does Mookie Betts trade impact Kris Bryant's future with Cubs?

View descriptionShare

Mike Mulligan and David Haugh conducted the daily 5 at 5 segment, which began with their reaction to the blockbuster trade agreement between the Dodgers and Red Sox that will send star outfielder Mookie Betts and left-hander David Price to Los Angeles. How could that trade impact star third baseman Kris Bryant's future with the Cubs? The guys then discussed the Cubs' interest in free-agent second baseman Jason Kipnis, as reported by Jordan Bastian of MLB.com. With young infielder Nico Hoerner the heir apparent at second base, would Kipnis be a welcome addition or an impediment to Hoerner's progress? The morning crew also had a conversation about the 2020 win projections recently released by USA Today Sports. The White Sox were predicted to finish third in the AL Central with an 83-79 record, while the Cubs were projected to finish fourth in the NL Central with an 82-80 mark. Will those projections be accurate? Will the White Sox have a better record than the Cubs? The Hall of Fame voter who didn't vote to elect Yankees legend Derek Jeter on his ballot was then a topic of conversation. Is the voter's decision to remain anonymous a cowardly act or merely a desire to avoid negative attention? Later, the guys had a discussion about the New York Times report that the Bulls consider guard Zach LaVine off-limits ahead of the trade deadline Thursday afternoon. Who's the organization's most valuable asset? Is LaVine the most untouchable player? (2/5/20)
