Jim Callis: I haven't liked many of the Cubs' moves this offseason. Seems like their plan centered around getting Bradley, but I don't buy that he can stay healthy and play the OF on a regular basis. They also overpaid for him on the current market, and that led to the trade of DeRosa, whom they'll really miss. Miles is a poor substitute for DeRosa.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Didn't the trade happen first?
