MESA, Ariz. — Building a roster is never simple. But this offseason was more complicated than most.
“I think a lot of the things we set out to accomplish, we did,” Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said. “We want to field a competitive team. We also very much have one eye on the future, as we’ve shown. Trying to thread that needle is something that we’re aware of, and I think we did that. I think it’s going to be hard to evaluate anything for a while.”
