Description

Slugger Kyle Schwarber is finalizing a massive five-year, $150 million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies, and the ripple effects could be felt across MLB — especially by the Chicago Cubs. On the CHGO Cubs Podcast, hosts Luke Stuckmeyer, Joey Christopoulos, and Justin Roman break down how Schwarber’s deal could reshape the Cubs’ offseason strategy and free-agent market. With Kyle Tucker’s future in Chicago not looking promising, how do Pete Crow-Armstrong, Dansby Swanson, and Michael Busch factor into the Cubs’ long-term roster construction? We analyze how Jed Hoyer may adjust the Cubs’ plans moving forward.
