Cubs Rumors: Is Travis d’Arnaud an option for the Cubs?
For months, Cubs rumors have connected the team to potential catchers. Another prominent option could be in play following this weekend’s news.
Don’t be shocked if Cubs rumors begin to swirl in the coming days. The team lost their hot-hitting backup catcher this month and have been riding Willson Contreras in a big way since.
One thing seems certain right now, Contreras cannot play nearly every day when the stretches of few-to-no off days come. He has been doing all of the catching outside of Saturday night’s game since Victor Caratini broke a bone in his hand. The Cubs called up Taylor Davis, and he has made one start and caught a total of 11 innings in his time up so far.
