Sammy's been my favorite player ever since he first came to the Cubs. I'm saddened and dissapointed that it came to him being traded on these terms but his head has become inflated, while his game has downsized. As far as just getting rid of him I say good riddance. He hits .250 and strikes out 200 times a year, you can have him Baltimore.
Hairstons not great but he's another piece to the puzzle. The cubs hit the most homers last year proving that power isnt everything, they just need to stop striking out, get on base and hopefully be able to score more consistently this year. Sammy didn't help in the games that mattered.
