Description

This is a smaller move that could have a much bigger impact. The Athletic’s Sahadev Sharma and Patrick Mooney break down where the 40-year-old fits in the lineup, how his postseason experience can influence the clubhouse and why Cubs players are so excited about the addition. Plus a look back at the 2021 deadline now that Alexander Canario, a prospect from the Kris Bryant trade, has been designated for assignment to make room for Turner on an improving roster. And before you know it, Shota Imanaga and Justin Steele will be pitching in the Tokyo Series.
