"The Cubs have interest in Eugenio Suarez as they explore the third base market, according to a report from Francys Romero of Beisbol FR. While Chicago doesn't appear to be getting involved in the sweepstakes for outgoing superstar Kyle Tucker, that doesn't mean they won't be active in other areas of free agency this winter. The Cubs haven't been shy about their focus being on adding a starter to the front half of their rotation,"
"As for Suarez himself, he'd surely be a more affordable option than Bregman. The 34-year-old is coming off one of the best seasons of his career as he slugged 49 home runs and posted a 125 wRC+, but his market has been relatively quiet to this point in the winter. The Mariners are open to reuniting with Suarez, but are seemingly prioritizing a potential reunion with Jorge Polanco at this point."
The Cubs have interest in Eugenio Suarez as they explore possible third base upgrades while remaining focused on adding a front-end starter and bullpen help. Chicago appears unlikely to pursue Kyle Tucker but has been connected to starters such as Michael King, Tatsuya Imai, and Ranger Suarez. The team pursued bullpen options after missing on Ryan Helsley. Chicago has also shown interest in Alex Bregman as it weighs infield improvements following a 93 wRC+ season at third and with Nico Hoerner approaching free agency after 2026. Suarez, age 34, hit 49 homers with a 125 wRC+ and represents a more affordable option; Seattle may re-sign him but appears to prioritize Jorge Polanco.
