The Chicago Cubs received woeful production from their bench this season - and it's an area the team can definitely improve before camp opens in Arizona next spring.
There's next to no depth behind Matt Shaw, Dansby Swanson and Nico Hoerner on the infield, so when Cubs fans saw that the Tampa Bay Rays had designated Christopher Morel for assignment, they immediately dusted off their graduation goggles and started talking about bringing the 26-year-old back into the fold.
I get that he's still young and he had some big moments early in his career as a member of the Cubs, but we're talking about a guy who, in part-time duty this season, punched out in a career-worst 35.
