• Checking back in on Kevin Gregg, it would be a huge surprise if he's still in a Cubs uniform on August 1. The news this week, though, is that manager Dale Sveum said Pedro Strop would likely take over as the closer in the event of a Gregg trade. Strop has been pretty good since being dealt to the Cubs as part of the trade that sent Scott Feldman to the Orioles. He has thrown 6.2 shutout innings, striking out eight and allowing just two hits. If you're speculating deep for saves, Strop is worth an add.
