Chicago Cubs

As Chicago Cubs fans continue to wait patiently for Jed Hoyer and the front office to make an impact addition in free agency, other teams have remained very active.

On Friday afternoon, a former Cubs top prospect landed a new opportunity. That former top prospect is none other than Christopher Morel.

According to reports, Morel has landed a one-year contract with the Miami Marlins in free agency.

Not long ago, Morel was one of the top young players in Chicago. There was a strong belief that he could be a big part of the team’s future. Unfortunately, he was never able to live up to his full potential and was dealt to the Tampa Bay Rays in the deal that brought Isaac Paredes to the Cubs.

During the 2025 MLB season with the Rays, Morel ended up playing in 105 games. He hit 11 home runs to go along with 33 RBI and a slash line of .219/.289/.396.

Obviously, those numbers are not going to get the job done long-term. However, Morel has a chance to join an up-and-coming Marlins team that he could have a positive impact on in 2026. His bat will need to become much more consistent, but the power that he brings to the plate is intriguing.

As for Chicago, the Cubs continue to be rumored to big names without signing the. Most notably, Chicago appears to be one of the teams in on star free agent infielder Alex Bregman. Fans will remember that the team was also interested in signing him last offseason, but was not willing to pay as much as the Boston Red Sox were.

While frustration is starting to mount for Cubs fans, it’s good to see Morel get another chance. Assuming he’s not playing against Chicago, the hope is that he can resurrect his career in Miami.
