After 99 hard days, Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Player’s Association have labor peace. Now, teams like the Chicago Cubs can start looking at how they can get their roster ready to go for the 2022 season which is going to begin for them on April 7th.

In a 24 hour span, we went from having the first two weeks of the MLB season canceled with more on the way to getting a full 162 game schedule back. It is amazing how things have turned but we are thankful for it. Now, free agents are free to sign wherever they want whenever they want.

The Chicago Cubs are in a weird little spot right now. We don’t know if they are trying to win or if they are trying to rebuild. A few of their recent moves contradict each other but we can assume they are trying to win as long as Willson Contreras is still there.

If that is the case, there are a lot of free agents for them to consider. A lot of guys were left unsigned when the lockout came to be and are still awaiting their new MLB home to come calling. It is going to get crazy in short order.

The Chicago Cubs should consider adding a free agent or two before the season.

Let’s be honest about something. Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo are not coming back. That, however, doesn’t mean that the Cubs can’t go for any big free agents. In fact, there are a lot of really good ones to make up for losing guys like that. These are the ten most outstanding free agents for them to consider:
