Just as I was getting ready to write up something about a hypothetical package for Kyle Tucker, a report from Ken Rosenthal and Chandler Rome of The Athletic shed some light on the names being discussed. Both Seiya Suzuki and Isaac Paredes have been targeted by the Astros, which makes sense because Houston would want to have an immediate replacement for Tucker while also providing a fallback in case Alex Bregman leaves in free agency. However, the belief remains that the Cubs are “highly unlikely” to move Suzuki even though he would be willing to waive his no-trade clause for the right situation.
