🔥 Topics We Cover:

⚾ Cubs trade for Edward Cabrera

⚾ Cubs sign Alex Bregman — what does it change?

⚾ Does a Pirates–Cubs trade now make sense?

⚾ Matt Shaw trade rumors — could Chicago move him after a disappointing rookie season?

⚾ Would Shaw be a realistic 3B option for the Pirates?

⚾ Could the Phillies look to move Alec Bohm?

⚾ Eugenio Suárez free agency — will Pittsburgh wait out the market?

⚾ Pirates arbitration updates (Santana, Bart, Cruz, Lawrence)

⚾ Bullpen addition Chris Devenski

With Bregman locking down third base in Chicago, could the Cubs look to cash in on Matt Shaw for pitching? And if so… should the Pirates pounce? 🤔

Adam and Scott also debate whether the Pirates will actually spend on a third baseman or stay patient as prices fall.
