[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1681418, member: 26283"] I don't know the extent that it's informed speculation versus wishcasting, but both Cerami and Rosenthal mentioned the Cubs as a possible landing spot for Correa. There's also been some rumors around the Cubs and Stroman. Add Correa and Stroman, plus a filler starter like Danny Duffy, a filler outfielder like Joc Pederson redux, and a relatively high leverage reliever like Ryan Tepera to Miley, Gomes, and what the Cubs have returning and their projected win total would be within spitting distance of the Cardinals and Brewers assuming the Cardinals and Brewers don't make any more major additions (which the Brewers probably won't and the Cardinals still might). Their team payroll would be under $170mm, which would be in line with the what it's been under the Ricketts for the past several years, and other than Correa and Story, they'd have no long term contracts past 2023.
