Episode 40 of Club 1:20 is here — and we’re kicking off Thanksgiving week with big Cubs news, Big Board shake-ups, roster moves, rumors, and a little gratitude along the way.

This week’s lineup card:

  • Big Board Updates: Free agents already coming off the board — Shota returns to the Cubs for 2026, and Josh Naylor stays in Seattle.
  • Shota Returns: Do we like the deal? Love it? Hate it? Or is this the rare offseason move that actually makes sense?
  • Cubs Roster Moves: Riley Martin, James Triantos, Pedro Ramirez, and Shota added to the 40-man. Cubs roster sits at 32 — winter moves incoming.
  • Payroll Projections: Cubs currently around $148 million. Are they gearing up to spend or tightening the belt before a CBA storm?
  • Smoke or Fire: Schwarber. Bellinger. Bregman. Cease. Which Cubs rumors have legs and which are just offseason smoke?
  • Topic of the Week – Giving Thanks: A Cubs-themed Thanksgiving segment — what we’re grateful for this season.

    • 🍺 Crack an Old Style, grab a bleacher seat, and settle in for Episode 40 of Club 1:20.
