Episode Description from the Publisher

Changes are definitely coming to this roster, but the Cubs won’t be starting from scratch. Besides a core group of players, the club also has decisions to make on upcoming free agents who may have strong interest in a reunion. The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney explain why Clay Holmes and David Peterson would make a lot of sense in the 2027 rotation. Plus, a full breakdown of Chicago’s catching situation, with Carson Kelly eligible to become a free agent. Are Miguel Amaya and Owen Ayers ready to take over behind the plate?
