Quiet Winter Meetings & Cubs Add Lefty Hoby Milner to the Bullpen | Bleacher Nation Cubs
Description
Brett and Michael are back for the forty-second episode of the Bleacher Nation Cubs Podcast (Presented by Ankin Law)! It’s been a quiet Winter Meetings, but the Cubs have made another meaningful addition to the bullpen.
They break down Chicago’s signing of lefty Hoby Milner, a move that felt inevitable after last offseason’s near-miss. Milner profiles as an ideal fit for the middle innings, and paired with Phil Maton, represents a strong start to the Cubs’ bullpen rebuild.
The guys also talk about how quickly the closer market has dried up, with many top names already off the board, and what that means for the Cubs’ remaining relief plans.
Plus, the Alex Bregman rumor cycle continues—this time with word that Scott Boras has opened discussions with the Mariners—which naturally leads to more speculation about how the third-base market may shape up.
