I doubt the Pirates will deal Capps. If it would be a pitcher, I would say one of the set up men: Damaso Marte or Shawn Chacon. They are the 2 most consistent bullpen pitchers in the Pirates lineup. Although now that Torres is back, Capps isn't as much of a long shot. However, I would go my first answer, either Marte or Chacon. I don't know how what the ChC ratio of righties lefties is so I can't make a completely accurate guess. Personally, I don't see why the Pirates made the deal at all. After Wilson returned to the lineup, he's had a steady back and a usually consistent glove, with a bad game every other week or so.

Pirates, Chacon to talk
The Pirates and reliever Shawn Chacon, who has expressed interest in a contract extension, are expected to begin talks toward that goal early next week.
It is not known what Chacon, already the team's highest-paid pitcher at $3.8 million, might seek.
If Chacon is not signed, he is a prime candidate to be moved by the July 31 trading deadline, given that he can be a free agent after this season.

nicely they dumped Izturis reason such as you pronounced they had to lose some earnings and Ryan Theriot and Mike Fontenut have rather accepted themselves because of the fact the main important shortstops. The Cubs commerce a great style of with the Pirates reason their administration has a competent courting with the Pirates, reason they make maximum of bargains.

A "player to be named later" is always a low-level minor league prospect. It will be someone that none of us have heard of before (unless you know a lot about the Pirates' farm system).

The Cubs are just dumping weight that's all. They are preparing to make a big move it looks like.
