Two lists have the Hoerner, Marquez, Davis, Amaya group included.

This is actually a good thing.

Gennett looked like he was breaking out in 2017 and 2018 before a disastrous 2019 season.

Gotta talk about something else in the NL Central, so I’ll talk about the Brewers.

Gonna go slap some walls.

The Reds aren’t messing around this offseason, and Castellanos could help make that a brutal lineup to go with a quality pitching staff.

This is fun.

Bad weather isn’t going to stop Zobrist from making a difference.

Kintzler would’ve been a good re-signing, but I can see the upside in letting that group depart.

The series sure played out interestingly, too.

If they get a chance to close for the Marlins, can’t blame ’em.

The physical for Souza figures to be a little involved, given his catastrophic knee injury last year.

Any implications for the Cubs and Javy Baez?

It’s not a major move, but it’s one that would make a lot of sense.

A useful maneuver.

Spring Training is around the corner, which doesn’t just mean various big league things – it means all kinds of prospecting things.

Getting a ton of talented arms in the door – but arms that need work – is probably a dream scenario for a guy who loves to do the work, like Hottovy.

This turns into a whole lot of conversation about Wil Myers.

Sounds like he is still angry about whatever happened behind the scenes, but he doesn’t want to talk about it.

At a crossroads in the offseason, we can all see where this is pointing. What bitter scrutiny lies ahead for the Cubs if there are no changes.

I could see the Angels still needing some pitching. Also, why did the Astros players receive no punishment? A few good reasons, actually.

Strop could be down to just the Rangers and Marlins.

Please do not let Castellanos sign with another NL Central team for cheap.

The Cubs have some more minor leaguers to bring in for depth/competition.

It’s Wrigley North, and I’ll near nothing else on the matter.

If there is any relationship at all, that is.

Well that certainly complicates things with the Braves as a possible trade partner.

Another plus-spin reliever to add to the stockpile.

That’ll fix everything!

I wonder it, and I also get a little nervous about it, because we all want to see the Cubs and Baez stick together.

Second thoughts on these issues?

Arenado called the Rockies GM “very disrespectful,” says he’s been “crossed,” and this could get ugly.

Don’t expect an Arenado trade this offseason.

I want Strop to get what he can get … but please don’t wind up with the Brewers.

A whole lotta Cubs prospect notes to get into today.
