[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1635532, member: 26283"] If the Cubs hadn’t made the Yu Darvish cash dump, they’d pretty easily be the best team in their division. I’ll be curious to see if the increased capacity allowances will change the ownership’s stance on payroll. Cubs would likely be able to get some talent without giving up much in the way of prospects if they were willing to take on some contracts, something they haven’t been able to do these last few years as they were up against the luxury tax. They are currently about $65 Million lower in payroll than the last non-COVID season and about $55 Million under the luxury tax. [/QUOTE]
