Alex Bregman remains a free agent, with a decision possibly coming in the next week. Buster Olney, Robert Murray, and Bob Nightengale have all mentioned the Cubs as a finalist for Bregman as the smoke continues to billow. But with teams looking to solidify their rosters as camps open up across the league, the third baseman’s options are dwindling.
Patrick Mooney and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reported on Monday that Justin Turner is now an option for the Cubs, but only if Bregman doesn’t join them first.
The Chicago Cubs, continuing to explore options even after the start of their spring training, are considering free agent Justin Turner as a potential addition in case Alex Bregman signs with another team, multiple league sources told The Athletic on Monday.
