    Garza to Texas near

    Sounds like Cubs and Rangers very close on a deal.

    Garza has been scratched from tonight's start as a result.

    So? It doesn't matter. He's not pitching tonight. Unless you bet action, you'll have no wager, and betting action doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Cubs get:

    Triple A 3B Mike Olt, Single A RHP C.J. Edwards and a third player.

    Olt is a top prospect, of course.

    You can't bet Skaggs listed there?

    If you placed a bet and listed only Skaggs, it would be voided only if Skaggs didn't go.

    What that means is in this case, it's an "action ML" bet. So you would get the new line after the books post it.


    Basically, betting Skaggs listed is the same as betting action in this case.

    Thanks for this, man.

    Haven't been following this closely, but I am really happy to get Olt out of the deal. Quality 3rd basemen aren't in abundance.

    Olt is a stud.

    Chris Rusin is starting for the Cubs tonight, apparently.

    even if they offered it, there wouldn't be an advantage there.

    I don't think Olt is ready for prime time though.
    He tore up AA ball last year, what he hit, 30 homers or something at Frisco?
    Stunk it up when the Rangers called him up, plus he strikes out way to much.
    Has unreal raw power though.

    Olt is a reclamation project at this point, total flop this season and vision problems to boot. CJ Edwards is a wild card, dominating A ball, but doesn't project well at 6' 150lbs. Grimm could be decent, K pitcher, could be a quality bullpen arm, back of the rotation guy. But the PTBNL pool includes Ramirez, which ain't too shabby. 4 for 1 on a 6 month rental - can't complain too much, but really wanted Luke Jackson.
