Swap: Hutchison for Bustamante Tuesday, May 2nd , 2084 You can't always get what you want, but sometimes you find a deal anyway. The Baseball News Network is reporting that Chicago and Los Angeles have made a swap with 23-year old minor league SS Jonathan Hutchison and 24-year old minor league C Kevin Norton being shipped to the Dodgers and in return the Cubs would get 23-year old C Marvin Bustamante. Chicago general manager Vin Calia said the two sides were close to a blockbuster trade before agreeing upon a smaller scale transaction. "This is just a bit of housekeeping compared to what we wanted to do," he said. "I won't name names, but the potential deal we were close to making would have certainly grabbed some headlines." A source inside the Chicago organization said the two sides might not be done dealing, and another transaction could be in the works. |
