It was believed that former Blue Jays and Red Sox manager John Farrell would be considered to join the Cubs coaching staff in 2020, but according to a report from The Athletic on Tuesday that's no longer the case. Farrell, who has been working for the Reds since 2018 as a special assistant, was...
The Cubs currently have eight free agents and a few more will hit the open market in the coming days because of team options not being picked up or buyouts from the final year of a contract. For a few other players, they'll opt-in to the rest of their deals with the Cubs and in turn the Cubs will...
The Cubs have a bunch of free agents from their 2019 team and there are at least a few who they should strongly consider re-signing this offseason. So, let's go through the list! Jonathan LucroyAge: 33, 101 games in 2019, slash line: .232/.305/.35527 games with Cubs, slash line .189/.283/.283...
This could possibly complicate offseason plans for the Cubs, as Japanese free agent Shogo Akiyama suffered a fracture in his right foot during an exhibition game against Canada on Thursday. The 31-year-old center fielder is an international free agent and is able to sign with anyone without teams...
Following the World Series, 131 players officially became free agents including eight from the Cubs. Yet, there's one who clearly fans want back the most and it seems like the front office is on board too. Of course, at the end of the day money talks. Without Nick Castellanos, the Cubs most likely...
Players aren't being signed or traded yet, but so far Theo Epstein's comments about things changing with the Cubs is true up and down the organization. Even before the season was over Jason McLeod was moved from the amateur scouting department and the team completely shuffled up its player...
A few more coaching changes have been confirmed for the Cubs, as 670 The Score's Bruce Levine has reported that Brian Butterfield and Tim Buss will leave to join Joe Maddon with the Angels. https://twitter.com/MLBBruceLevine/status/1190118733185998848 Butterfield was hired as the Cubs third base...
On the first day of the offseason for all 30 MLB teams the White Sox made a few roster moves, doing some housekeeping on their 40-man roster and saving $500k by trading away catcher Welington Castillo. Thursday was also the official start of free agency, as 131 players across the league declared...
Back in the summer, when Bears fans could still be optimistic about the team being Super Bowl contenders, people all across the country were betting on Mitch Trubisky to win MVP. His odds were as low as 200-1 to 100-1. Basically, for every dollar you bet you'd get $200 or $100 back depending on...
The Pittsburgh Pirates don't have a GM right now, but the writing is on the wall. They're going to rebuild. Since Jake Arrieta slashed any championship aspirations by the Pirates in 2015, Pittsburgh has only been above .500 once and hasn't returned to the postseason. After the 2019 season, the...
Ben Zobrist spent most of the 2019 season away from baseball, dealing with family issues and it's fair to say that most fans assumed the 38-year-old would call it a career after playing in 14 MLB seasons. The switch-hitting, two-time World Series winner is now a free agent, but it doesn't sound...
David Ross officially became the newest Cubs manager on Monday and although there weren't any groundbreaking takeaways from his introductory press conference we did learn that the team wants a veteran coach next to the first-time manager. By all accounts Ross will be the one deciding who's on his...
