Cubs trade target: Jurickson Profar

The Cubs are said to want a middle infielder who can play shortstop, to back up Javier Baez while Addison Russell is out, or perhaps even replace Russell if Addy is traded.

So here’s a rumor for you:

What I heard from a rival club official: Rangers are, as reported, willing to talk Profar & Mazara. This club got feel Rangers were a little more motivated on Mazara right now; price on Profar would be high.
