Summary
The Cubs sit second, trailing Milwaukee, and face a tough decision: go all-in before the trade deadline or hold back? Tarik Skubal, a Cy Young winner with elite stats, is the top target—but he’s a rental and comes with a steep price tag. Trading top prospects for him might be worth it if the cost is right, but with so many unknowns and a looming free agency, the Cubs must weigh short-term gains against long-term value.
