Love it my Pirates get Shark to be our ace with Burnett possibly retiring/ leaving via free agency and we only have to give up one of our top pitchers and the Polanco. plus we get to take a chance on a former top 50 prospect with 20-20 potential.

No way! Jackson is a 4th outfielder at best and Samardzija is a #3 at best. Tallion is a future ace and Polanco has huge upside.

The Mariners get a 23 year old 2 time all star SS for the best pitching prospect in baseball and some add ins i'd say that a good all around trade.

Cubs look pretty scary down the road. But my Cards can take em.

If you flip the trades around and have Castro and Schierholtz go to Pittsburgh and Samardzija and Jackson go to Seattle it would make more sense.
