We've made an internal trade:

@markgrotesports is moving to #Bears beat for us

@ZachZaidman is switching to become #Cubs pregame and postgame host

Why would a New Yorker who is deeply associated with football coverage do your baseball over a Chicagoan and Cubs fan who's been doing the job well for three years? Did they overpay Zaidman and have to give him a bigger workload to justify it? Dumb.

Grote must be wishing that it is.

That's one hell of a demotion.

I like when they make it easier to hate the Cubs.

You know what would make this trade better? Adding Julie into the booth with Pat and Ron...they need the female voice.

There is no emoticon to properly express my anger and sadness at this move.

Sources say: Grooming ZZ to do some play-by-play for Cubs. They felt Grote could not do that.

Going from Pat Hughes to Zaidman on the call is going to be....interesting.

Maybe Coomer being so bad made Grote look okay, but I didn't think Grote was bad.

Has Laurence tweeted that he was offered to switch to Cubs pre/post game before Zaidman but declined?
