When Willson Contreras declines the Chicago Cubs offer…where will he land and which team benefits the Cubs the most in compensation? Plus, we’ll discuss Corey Kluber, Drew Smyly, David Robertson, Jose Abreu and other names connected to the Cubs at the GM Meetings. Luke Stuckmeyer, Cody Delmendo and Ryan Herrera cover it all with guest Eugene McIntosh from The Bigs…
Sure, the Cubs won four straight series heading into this past weekend, but it didn't do a whole lot to make their record look better.
Now, after dropping six straight, they sit 20 games under .500, and another trade deadline sell off makes it very likely things will only get worse.
The Cubs have fallen to 18 games under .500 in 2022 and are in position to be sellers during trade deadline season.
Plenty of names have cropped up as potential trade candidates, and it's worth taking a look at where some of them stand as July approaches.
After the Chicago Cubs offense exploded for five runs in the 8th inning to take a late lead, David Robertson and Scott Effross couldn’t lock down the Pirates, who won it in 10 innings.

Hey, Chicago, what do ya say? We’ve gotta figure out who the Cubs will bring with them to Opening Day. Well folks, it’s a cold April 1 and people are getting pranked all over for April Fools’ Day, but here at the CHGO office, we’re preparing for a completely different holiday coming in just six days. The long wait is…
Kyle Hendricks took the start to kick off Cactus League play on Thursday. In three weeks, it would be a surprise if the Professor isn't on the bump for the Cubs on Opening Day, too.
