Happy 4th of July week! Hopefully most of you aren’t too busy this week and get to enjoy some time off with friends and family! Patrick is off for the week so I’ll be on newsletter duty.

It’s an off day for the Cubs on the field, but off the field, there’s some news to discuss. For the second time in recent weeks, Jon Morosi has made a connection between the Cubs and Mariners as potential trade partners. With the team’s struggles so far this year, the Cubs could be open to dealing almost anyone for the right price including Nico Hoerner, Ian Happ, and Cody Bellinger among others.
