One of the bigger questions for the Chicago Cubs heading into Spring Training is whether or not Nico Hoerner will begin the 2020 campaign in the majors as an everyday player. The kid showed promise as a 22-year-old rookie late this year, but he still has a lot of growing to do. With Ben Zobrist possibly retiring and Addison Russell likely being non-tendered, it would be wise for the Cubs to pursue some veteran second baseman.
Some of the Cubs’ most pressing needs are going to be tough to fill and may require some creativity.
