[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1346415, member: 26283"] The rumor with the Giants was because the Giants also had some bad contracts and they are woefully short on Major League outfielders. The Cubs would take the Giants' bad pitching contracts and the Giants would take the Cubs' bad outfielder contract. The rumored Samardjiza/Melancon for Heyward trade would have had the Cubs taking on more money than the Giants would have taken on. There's no way for the Cubs to trade Heyward without taking on some other bad contract or sending tons of cash along with Heyward. ETA: This looks like it's all irrelevant since sources out of Frisco deny the Giants are interested in Heyward. [/QUOTE]
