I will have thoughts on the Cubs acquiring 23-year-old righty Jacob Turner from the Marlins next week, but, until then, here are some of the thoughts from folks involved in the deal and those who are looking at it from the outside (and a few from me, too)Â …
Turner has issues, but so far he’s shown an above-average two-seamer, slider and curve by swinging strikes & grounders. That’s a proven mix.

To sum up, the Jacob Turner deal makes all kinds of sense for the Cubs. Makes no sense for the Marlins.
