The Rundown: Crosstown Classic Looks Like Pre-Deadline Trap Series, Cubs Favorites to Land Gore, Revisiting 2008 In-Season Trades

“Time passes much too quickly when we’re together laughing.”Beginnings by Chicago

It’s Crosstown Classic weekend and the White Sox are hot, while the second-place Cubs are not. I’m hoping the two teams work out a deal that allows Mike Tauchman to switch dugouts before today’s game. I doubt the South Siders would accept Vidal Bruján straight up, but one can dream.

The series no longer carries the cachet it did back in 1997, but it’s still a civil war for many baseball fans in Chicago.
