Cubs agree to deal. While Brantley is talented, the picks and international money assist my rebuild. Gregorio is a good arm who fits in well for me. Hembree instantly improves my bullpen. Mallex has raw talent and will help contribute in CF. Wernes has some ability, but Cubs previous owner burned service time. The arms are fringe MLB talent that do not help me long term. Brian to confirm.
