[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1403840, member: 26283"] Romero was a non-prospect. 23 years old and still at A-Ball. The Cubs didn't give up any of their top 30 prospects for Hamels, Chavez, and Kintzler. Chavez and Kintlzer should be on the Cubs' playoff roster, even assuming Morrow is back and healthy. Hamels could be the Cubs fourth playoff starter if Darvish isn't back and healthy. So, basically, giving up nothing of consequence for three guys who could/should be contributors on a playoff roster is pretty good. Certainly would have liked to see the Cubs get a better starting pitcher than Hamels, but I don't really see anyone the Cubs could have gotten that was significantly better than Hamels in 2018.
