Cubs still chasing C.C.

Speaking on WSCR radio in Chicago this afternoon, baseball analyst and White Sox broadcaster Steve Stone said the Chicago Cubs were still in the hunt for C.C. Sabathia. Stone believes the Cubs have the right combination of "Major League ready" talent and prospects to land the Indians ace should Cleveland consider itself unlikely to compete for the postseason.

Some of the "MLB ready" players who came up in the discussion were pitcher Sean Gallagher and infielder Ronny Cedeno. Stone mentioned prospects Donny Veal, Tyler Colvin and Jeff Samardzija as trade possiblities.

Stone also mentioned the A's Rich Harden and the Blue Jays' A.J. Burnett as players the Cubs could go after.
