“Faith is taking the first step even when you can’t see the whole staircase.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
I’d like to announce that the hot stove season is now over, but there are still plenty of moves to be made. One thing is certain, and that’s that the Cubs seem to truly believe that Kris Bryant will be their Opening Day third baseman. What’s not so certain is what Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer plan to do to get their payroll below $208 million. There are much less drastic ways to get there than by trading from their core.
