The Milwaukee Brewers may target Chicago Cubs' outfielder Cody Bellinger during the upcoming offseason, as reports indicate he may opt out of his current contract. Bellinger, who has had a solid season with a .267 batting average and 15 home runs, could be a valuable asset for the Brewers, particularly if first baseman Rhys Hoskins is traded. Meanwhile, the Cubs' young first baseman Michael Busch is emerging as a key player for the team, having impressed with his demeanor and play since joining the roster. In roster news, the Cubs are anticipating the debut of right-handed pitcher Trey Wingenter, who could replace an injured Justin Steele, currently dealing with elbow issues. This follows a series of recent roster moves by the Cubs, aimed at bolstering their bullpen as they prepare for a crucial stretch of the season. The Cubs also continue to evaluate their pitching staff, with several relievers showing inconsistency in recent outings.
