At ESPN, Kiley McDaniel and Jeff Passan released a combined preview for the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline, identifying the 50 deadline candidates, their likelihood of being dealt, and the teams most likely to be involved in those pursuits. And when I tell you the Cubs are all over the list, I mean ALL OVER the list.
