As for the hypothetical trade, the Cubs only "win" it under two circumstances.
1. Clase or Bieber represent well for the Cubs in an LCS and/or WS scenario.
2. Morel, Brown, and Caissie are sub-standard MLB players.
Talk about drawing to an inside-straight.
No, thanks.
MLB announces Cubs minor-league RHP Mathew Peters, who is currently on their Arizona Complex League roster, has been suspended for 2024 ACL season after testing positive for Dehydrochlormethyltestosterone, a performance enhancing substance.
Peters, 23, was 12th rd pick in 2022.
Alzolay, Neris, Merryweather, Almonte, Smyly figure to be 5 locks for the pen barring a terrible ST.
That leaves 3 spots for Leiter, Assad, Wesneski, Cuas, Palencia, Little, Thompson, Rucker, Horn.
Smyly/Assad/Wesneski figure to be battling Wicks for 5th SP spot as well.
Man, this is awesome.
Truly honored, grateful and thankful to @ballparkdigest for the nomination and selection, to those who voted, to @IowaCubs and @WatchMarquee or allowing me to do what I do.
Lastly, a big thanks to all of you for tuning in.
Love you all.

Midweek is possible. I think he could be great out of the ‘pen too, though they may not need even more lefties
