Podcast: Cubs trade Joc Pederson to Braves originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago
Joc Pederson is now an Atlanta Brave as the Cubs traded the outfielder for minor league first baseman Bryce Ball. Does this trade signal things to come?
Tim Stebbins, Gordon Wittenmyer and Tony Gill do an emergency reaction to the trade after recording the podcast earlier before the trade went down.
Later in the podcast, David Kaplan, Maddie Lee, Tim and Gordon discuss possible trade scenarios with the White Sox and the Hall of Fame candidacy of Cubs closer Craig Kimbrel.
