Cubs shift Focus to signing Corbin Burnes!!! and Sammy Sosa is coming home!

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

+Burnes dominates the NL Central 💯

[@Commenter007]

I think that Shota is going to be fine. If the wind is blowing out, he'll adjust to that. I think that he's a smart pitcher and was pitching to the conditions last season. Plus, if the wind is blowing out, it'll be blowing out for our hitters as well . I believe that Shota will be fine.

[@fbales]

Sammy was surely exciting when he played. I don’t like some things about him from the past, but forgive and forget. The Cubs story can’t be told without Sosa. I’m glad he’s back.

[@ChiCubsCentral]

1000000000% agree. This organization is better today because it mended its fences with Sammy Sosa.

We need a closer closer 8:31

Keep up the work homie! Smooth voice and good talking points. Pleasure to listen to while at work :) Question: Wouldn’t going after two (more) upper end starters push us to the 1st luxury tax threshold? If we have roughly 45 M, I’m not sure we could afford two starters and still fix 3B, C, & Bullpen. Thoughts?

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Potentially…but Sasaki coming over as an international player under a certain age he can only sign for so much. That’s why virtually EVERY team is in on him right now. But it really depends on what u can get Corbin for

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Also I appreciate the compliment! We just getting started man; thank you for supporting the channel! ❤️

[@derekdyokas2938]

I hope Milwaukee takes a step back this year

[@ChiCubsCentral]

From your lips to Gods ears!

[@devinshaffer3105]

Most people are saying that but they always show out. They are like the blue collar team of the MLB

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

Yep, Corbin's market wasn't what they wanted in the 300-400mil range. Jed always jumps in with the 180 and opt outs 😂. This could be the Lester type move tho.

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Totally. Could change everything for us

[@nicholasarchie6440]

Nah dog shota is 🔥

[@ChiCubsCentral]

I love Shota…he was dynamic last year. My fear is that my cubs family might be let down if he doesn’t duplicate that this season

[@fbales]

I don’t agree about Shota. He pitched for a mediocre team, and did quite well. I’d worry more about Burns with his injury record. Why do you think he hasn’t been signed yet? We all hope for Sasaki, but I’d like to see them get Luis Castillo.

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Castillo is definitely on the wishlist but the trade ask might be steep. How many prospects you willing to give up? And which ones?

[@jamesbaker6181]

Both

[@douglasmott3048]

I'm still not sold Jed is all in on this year til they get a real closer and another starter

[@ChiCubsCentral]

I agree! He has shown that there’s a sense of urgency

[@Angel-km3xi]

The cubs need to focus on adding a left handed arm in the bullpen, someone like minter

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Minter would be a huge pick up! Solidify that bullpen for sure

[@Commenter007]

I'd much rather get Roki Sasaki. I worry about Corbin Burne's health.

[@austyndodson3644]

Bad take on Burnes feel like if he comes in and ace over Steele Steele won’t like that

[@ChiCubsCentral]

@@austyndodson3644 I would say being Cy Young winner and on a level where Justin Steele wants to be makes him the ace over Justin. Atleast for this season

[@SteveB-r9z]

Not happening on Burns he is going to sign with SF.. who they should go after is on Dylan Cease.. and get bullpen help

[@ChiCubsCentral]

@@SteveB-r9z I like Dylan Cease on the Cubs! That wouldn’t be a bad signing at all

[@derekdyokas2938]

I hope Milwaukee takes a step back this year

[@derekdyokas2938]

We need a closer closer 8:31

[@ChiCubsCentral]

Who you want?

[@JeremyDusenberry]

Both

[@ChiCubsCentral]

@@JeremyDusenberry I like your thinking! Sign em both then either way we winning! 😂
