After speaking with the media, Chicago Cubs team president Jed Hoyer has reiterated his plans for what the Cubs will do at the upcoming trade deadline.

The Chicago Cubs have the prospects it needs to get just about any deal done as the MLB trade deadline approaches.

The Chicago Cubs need some reinforcements as soon as possible. At 51-35, they’ve played well, but the Cubs have been a below-average team over the past month, which is somewhat concerning. The Milwaukee Brewers are only 3.0 games behind them, which should be a telling sign of what they need to do ahead of the deadline.
