Lake and Castillo and Samarzdija should also be of interest to most people. All 3 could be part of a "good" Cubs team in the future or return a major part to a good Cubs team. Can the Cubs really afford to part with Castillo? Depends if they think he's a productive player going forward or not Well, yeah, but they're kinda stuck with him to the point of no return given their lack of catching options.
