USA Today Gives Cubs Offseason Grade
USA Today has graded the Chicago Cubs on their offseason production.
In this story:
USA Today handed out offseason grades for every Major League Baseball team in a piece published by Bob Nightengale and Gabe Lacques.
The grades take into consideration all offseason trades, signings and transactions.
The Chicago Cubs were given a B+ and here’s why according to the piece:
“The Cubs walked the talk this winter, spending $305.5 million on nine free agents, led by Dansby Swanson’s seven-year, $177 million deal. They also brought in starter Jameson Taillon and veteran Trey Mancini. The team still has flaws and wasn't able to land a front-line starter or big bat, but they should be respectable.”
