- Brett Taylor (Bleacher Nation*): How about some very early ZiPS Standings Projections for 2026? “… hopefully the Cubs can way outperform their median projection and finish with a top-two record in the league, earning that first round playoff bye.”

- Mark Feinsand (MLB.com*): 8 teams that could still have some big moves up their sleeves. Nico Hoerner is mentioned.
- Brent Maguire (MLB.com*): Breaking down the Cubs’ extreme bullpen makeover. “Chicago’s complete overhaul of the bullpen could play a pivotal role for the 2026 Cubbies.“
- Matthew Trueblood (North Side Baseball*): Breaking down the Cubs’ bullpen battle: The lefties. “… only two lefties will make the Opening Day bullpen…”

- AP: Chicago Cubs agree to minor-league contracts with Trent Thornton and Chas McCormick. Also Dylan Carlson.
