Justin Wilson and Alex Avila to the Cubs, plus another rant about the Dodgers

The deal would be Justin Wilson and Alex Avila for Jeimer Candelario, Isaac Paredes and a Player To Be Named Later or cash, I'm told.

Who the fuck are these guys the Cubs are giving up?
Damn it, this is a trade LA could have and should have beaten. Instead I've watched our rivals pick up Sean Doolittle and Ryan Madson, JD Martinez, Jonathan Lucroy, and now Justin Wilson, all for consensus "light returns".

Jesus, Andy and Farhan, do your fucking jobs. Instead of acting like there's a league-wide conspiracy where every other team wants to rape the Dodgers, and only the Dodgers, of their A-prospects. Get on the fucking phone and fucking negotiate a deal for Brad Hand or Zach Britton.

Love it. Would have rather gotten Britton, but not giving up Almora for a solid BP arm is sexy af.

So, Britton and Hand didn't get moved, but Tony Watson and Tony Cingrini did. Just wouldn't be the Dodgers without adding a couple of dumpster fires to the pen.
