Timothy Huff MD+FollowCubs face tough road in pitching marketThe buzz around the Cubs landing a top Marlins pitcher just hit a snag. Despite strong interest in Sandy Alcantara and Edward Cabrera, league insiders say Miami isn’t eager to deal either ace this winter. That means the Cubs might have to look elsewhere if they want to upgrade their rotation. With other names like Pablo Lopez and MacKenzie Gore possibly available, it’s shaping up to be a tricky offseason for Chicago’s front office. What do you think—should the Cubs go all-in for a big arm, or focus on developing their young talent? #Sports #Baseball #Cubs01Share

Andrea Castillo+FollowCubs fans: Would you trade Nico Hoerner?Nico Hoerner’s future with the Cubs is suddenly a hot topic—he’s entering the last year of his contract, and some insiders think Chicago might consider trading him. Hoerner’s defense, consistency, and leadership have made him a fan favorite, but with Matt Shaw waiting in the wings, the front office could be tempted to shake things up. Would moving Hoerner make sense if the Cubs have a solid replacement lined up, or should they lock him in with an extension? This could be a turning point for the team. What do you think is the best move? #Sports #Baseball #Cubs00Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowCubs eye ace Sandy Alcantara for 2026Chicago’s front office is reportedly considering a bold move: trading for Miami Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara to anchor the Cubs’ rotation. With bullpen depth already a concern after key losses, adding a Cy Young winner like Alcantara—who finished last season strong—could instantly transform the pitching staff. This strategy would let the Cubs save money for relievers and possibly boost their offense, too. Imagine Alcantara and Cade Horton leading the charge, backed by veteran arms. Would this kind of blockbuster trade make the Cubs true contenders again? Let’s hear your thoughts on this potential game-changer! #Sports #Baseball #Cubs10Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowCubs bullpen hero Brad Keller could returnBrad Keller’s comeback story with the Cubs has fans buzzing—after being nearly written off last year, he dominated out of the bullpen with a 2.07 ERA and 75 strikeouts. Now, with free agency looming, the Cubs’ GM has made it clear: they want Keller back. With so many relievers hitting the market, keeping Keller could be crucial for the team’s 2025 hopes. Would you rather see him stay in the bullpen or get a shot as a starter? Let’s hear your take on how the Cubs should handle this offseason! #Sports #Baseball #Cubs20Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowCubs Nab Maton After Brewers' Wild Card HeartbreakCubs fans, what do you think about the front office landing Phil Maton—the same reliever who was on the wrong end of the Brewers’ epic 2024 Wild Card comeback? While Maton’s postseason with the Mets was rough, his 2025 numbers were elite (2.79 ERA, 92nd percentile metrics). With the bullpen in flux, this multi-year deal signals the North Siders are serious about the NL Central. Can Maton shake off that Milwaukee memory when he returns to American Family Field in Cubbie blue? #Sports #Baseball #Cubs10Share
PeppyPelican+FollowStroman back to Wrigley just makes senseStroman getting humbled by the Yankees might be exactly what the Cubs needed. Dude went from refusing bullpen duty to begging for any role after that 6.23 ERA disaster in the Bronx. Now he's available for pennies on the dollar, and Cubs faithful still love the guy from his solid 2022-2023 runs at Wrigley. Perfect low-risk, high-reward move for a bullpen that desperately needs arms. Sometimes the best moves are the obvious ones staring you right in the face.
