Locked On Cubs - Daily Podcast On The Chicago Cubs

Happy Wednesday Locked on Cubs Family!!

We have waited so long to get to this point in Spring Training, and we are finally seeing the Cubs starting rotation take shape. Behind Kyle Hendricks, Marcus Stroman, and Wade Miley, how will the group shake out? It's a game of musical chairs for the remaining two spots. Drew Smyly, Alec Mills, Keegan Thompson, Justin Steele? All of the above? We analyze the scenarios today!

Would the Cubs really trade their All-Star Catcher Willson Contreras?! Well, it appears they actually may. Now the New York Yankees have shown interest in the Cubs slugging backstop after trading away Gary Sanchez. Is Willson on the move? We hope not!

Plus, we have quotes, news, nuggets and an update on the goings on out in Mesa, AZ! Let's take a trip to sunny Arizona together!!

HAPPY TUESDAY LOCKED ON CUBS FAMILY!

The dream of Carlos Correa patrolling the shortstop position for the Chicago Cubs in 2022 is now gone after the slugger officially departs the Houston Astros and signs a 3-year contract with the Minnesota Twins. 3 year contract?! We thought the Cubs were in on Correa if he'd accept a shorter term deal! What happened? Join us and find out!

Plus, how exactly did the Chicago Cubs land Japanese slugger Seiya Suzuki? The process was a long one, but patience is a virtue! We chronicle how they courted Seiya and made him feel confident enough in Chicago and the Cubs to get a deal done!

Finally, let's head to Mesa, shall we?! Virtual Spring Training trip to catch up on all of the roster moves in the last couple days, and there have been plenty!!
