So, Ricketts says the Cubs are willing to spend near the luxury tax threshold. Does anyone else feel like we've heard this song and dance before? Is this just lip service, or are we actually about to see some major moves? Are Bregman or Flaherty realistic targets, or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment again? With Hoyer's contract on the line, is this finally the year he goes all in?

Ricketts talks about dry powder" and being "flexible. Is this a smart strategy, or are we going to miss out on key players by waiting too long? Are we prioritizing long-term deals over winning now? Trading Bellinger to clear space for Tucker - genius move or shortsighted cost-cutting?

Let's hear your predictions. Who do you think the Cubs will sign? Will Tucker even be here next year? Is this front office capable of building a championship team? Let the debate begin!
