As we dive deeper into the offseason, we are still very uncertain of what the Chicago Cubs will do. The club has an excellent core as is, but as the rest of the league improves, it’s important that Theo Epstein and his staff look externally to help this group.
There are a lot of areas the Cubs need improvement in, but I believe the most important is the offense. A group that can be so inconsistent needs some stability in the lineup. The Daniel Murphy addition helped add some consistency at the end of 2018, but the team was ranked 29th in the MLB in games with one or fewer runs and that needs to change.
