Yesterday, we took a look here at the Cubs’ estimated payroll and luxury tax figures for 2022.
It would seem that the Cubs have plenty of room to add a top hitter free agent, if they so choose, and many think a shortstop should be on the Cubs’ shopping list, whenever the lockout is lifted and “shopping” is again permitted.
Here’s a short list of shortstops who are free agents and could be starting players in 2022, along with their ages:
Carlos Correa (27)
Jose Iglesias (32)
Andrelton Simmons (32)
Trevor Story (29)Let’s take a look at those four.
