The Cubs and Blue Jays Continue to Talk Trade
With a youthful bullpen, light on solid options at the end of the game, the Chicago Cubs continue to consider options for adding a veteran right-hander.

So the Cubs Aren’t Getting Cuban Shortstop Hechavarria
Last week, there was a head-scratcher of a rumor that had the Chicago Cubs attached to a top Cuban shortstop prospect, who is free to sign with any team.
