Friday, April 4, 2014 - Today the Mariners added some offensive output. They Traded 2B Chris Taylor from AA Jackson to the Chicago Cubs for their 2B Luis Valbuena.

Last year in his first Major League season, Valbuena batted .240 AVG and .315 OBP. In comparison, Chris Taylor batted .271 AVG and .348 OBP. Take what you want, but it appears that the Mariners come away early winners, however the Cubs get a very good, very high potential prospect.

"This trade helps both teams in that these positions are positions are of high need for everybody. We need offensive output and we got it." Jack Z said. "We thank the Chicago Cubs organization for good effort in finalizing this deal."
