Three months ago, as the Chicago Cubs were coming off a disappointing 84-78 season that saw them miss the postseason for the first time in five years, fans believed that plenty of changes would be coming.

Yet here we are, almost a week into January, and despite all the speculation about who the Cubs may sign or acquire via trade… nothing has actually happened.
