Cubs Interested In Eugenio Suarez, Kyle Finnegan
Briefly

The Cubs are actively seeking upgrades as the trade deadline approaches, focusing on Eugenio Suárez and Kyle Finnegan. Their third base position has been a concern, especially after trading Isaac Paredes. Shaw has struggled at the plate, prompting Chicago to look for alternatives. Suárez offers a powerful bat with a strong offensive record, while Hayes presents challenges as a trade target due to his defensive-first approach and contract. Acquiring Suárez as a rental could provide a temporary solution, allowing the Cubs to reassess their options in the offseason.
Eugenio Suárez has been on fire at the plate over the past year-plus, with 59 home runs and a .281/.336/.611 batting line since July 7th of last year.
The Cubs' third base situation has been unsettled for a while, especially after they flipped Isaac Paredes to Houston as part of the Kyle Tucker trade.
Suárez is a rental option, which presents an attractive choice for the Cubs, allowing them to consider Shaw for the position in the offseason.
The Cubs have been linked to Ke'Bryan Hayes, but his glove-first profile and contract situation complicate trade discussions.
