It would seem that the Chicago Cubs will reach Christmas without making their big-ticket move of the offseason. The Cubs have been busy this offseason, focusing their efforts primarily on reconstructing the bullpen, but they have yet to address their need in the starting rotation, and many believe the team to be in need of an offensive upgrade.
Several key free-agent targets remain available for the Cubs. All eyes are on Tatsuya Imai and Alex Bregman as each of those moves would likely be the largest deal the Cubs have signed since they inked Dansy Swanson to a 7-year deal worth $177 million before the 2023 season.
