MLB insider hints that wildly unbelievable Cubs rumor might actually be real

A curious rumor that emerged during the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays was that the Chicago Cubs were among the teams considered to be a fit for Bo Bichette this offseason. Considering Bichette has only played shortstop (and second base during the World Series), the Cubs being a suitor didn't make much sense, considering they already have Dansby Swanson and Nico Hoerner in the middle of their infield.

MLB Network's Jon Morosi added some context to Bichette's free agency that, in theory, could point to the Cubs being among the teams to check in on the 27-year-old shortstop.
