6/17/24 Latest Chicago Cubs' roster move highlights devastating flaw in front office. The Chicago Cubs have spent money, with over $230MM in payroll commitments this season, but the team's 2024 season has gone off the rails because of continued deficiencies in self-scouting and then trying to correct that problem with poor free-agent signings. Between the the dead money still being paid to catcher Tucker Barnhart, first baseman Trey Mancini, and first baseman Garrett Cooper, $11MM of the $230MM that the Cubs are spending this season are on veteran bench pieces that are no longer with the team. Instead of promoting position prospects to the Major League roster and giving them runway as bench pieces who eventually graduate to being everyday players, the Cubs' front office, especially under Jed Hoyer, has refused to give them any meaningful role.
