    Cubs Next BIG Signing identified???

    Chicago Cubs Central | Should the Cubs Sign Eugenio Suárez? The Chicago Cubs are running out of time — and so is the free-agent market. Eugenio Suárez is the last true power bat still available, and he won’t be unsigned for much longer. With money freeing up and the Cubs already expected to push past the luxury tax to chase pitching, the real question becomes simple: why not go all-in? In this episode of Chicago Cubs Central, we break down why Eugenio Suárez makes perfect sense on a one-year “win-now” deal. The Cubs have a lineup built to contend, but adding Suárez’s proven power could be the missing piece that turns a playoff team into a legitimate World Series threat. We discuss: Why Suárez is the last impact bat on the market How a short-term deal protects long-term flexibility Where Suárez fits defensively and offensively What the Cubs’ lineup looks like with Suárez, Seiya Suzuki, Pete Crow-Armstrong, Dansby Swanson, Nico Hoerner, Michael Busch, Ian Happ, Carson Kelly, and Alex Bregman Why this move signals the Cubs are serious about winning now If the Cubs are already spending big to upgrade the rotation, adding one more bat could be the difference between competing and parading down Clark Street. 📢 Don’t miss this breakdown of why Eugenio Suárez could be the final piece of the puzzle. #ChicagoCubs #EugenioSuarez #CubsOffseason #CubsBaseball #MLBFreeAgency #WorldSeriesChase #CubsNation #FlyTheW #CubsLineup #WinNow
