Chicago Cubs: 3 last minute Kris Bryant trades to make before deadline

The Chicago Cubs are finally at the trade deadline. There isn’t much time for them to make their final deals but there is some business to take care of before the final buzzer. They haven’t had a very successful team so far this season. As a result, it has led to them selling from their roster. There are a lot of moves that they have made so far that suggest it is over.

Of course, it is sad when they trade players like Ryan Tepera, Andrew Chafin, and Joc Pederson. They also might trade guys like Craig Kimbrel and Zack Davies. All of these guys are great players that have made great contributions to their success in different ways. However, none of them have the emotional attachment to the fanbase as the guys who have won the World Series with the team.

The Cubs already traded one of those guys. Anthony Rizzo is on his way to the New York Yankees after a trade made on Thursday night. The Cubs are getting two prospects for him that should have a chance to become something someday.

Next on the list is the other two pending free agents. Javier Baez and Kris Bryant are players that will be considered trade bait all day. They might decide to keep Baez and work something out but Bryant feels as good as gone.

The Chicago Cubs might be trading Kris Bryant before the trade deadline passes.

If they are going to trade him, they are going to get some good players back in return but it might not be the return everyone is expecting. These are three trades that might be considered by teams that want him:
