Mark Steubinger of Da Windy City says trading for Whit Merrifield should be a priority for the Cubs.
The Cubs haven’t had a proven leadoff hitter since Dexter Fowler packed his bags after the 2016 season, and Merrifield would be the perfect fit for that role. He served as the primary leadoff hitter in Kansas City in each of the last two seasons, with nearly 77 percent of his plate appearances coming at the top of the lineup.
Wayne Cavadi at Minor League Ball writes that Scott Blewett is faring well in the Arizona Fall League.
