We see all kinds of reports this year about free agent players linked to certain teams.
So I wanted to post a response to this report by Jon Heyman in the New York Post:
The Cubs are among teams considering Michael Conforto. He is seeking a deal for two years with an opt-out. They also are in contact with Christian Vazquez, among other catchers.
I covered Vázquez (along with Omar Narváez) a couple of weeks ago, so let’s have a look at Conforto.
Conforto missed all of 2022 after suffering a shoulder injury during last offseason’s lockout for which he had to have surgery in April.
