The Chicago Cubs seem to have settled their catching situation. But it is still vital top prospect Miguel Amaya begins developing ahead of schedule.
Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer discussed a litany of topics during a Monday Zoom call with reporters, including the potential for the team to engage young stars in extension talks.
Hoyer hinted the core will all be on the roster for the start of spring training, meaning Willson Contreras is likely staying put. Craig Mish of SportsGrid reported last month the Cubs and Miami Marlins were engaged in talks centered around Contreras, but nothing ever developed.
