Pitching is at the top of their board, but third base has become a popular target floated in recent weeks, with Matt Shaw not giving the Cubs much at that position. Eugenio Suarez is the player who could be on the trade block that everyone is talking about -- and for good reason based on what he's done thus far -- but it's not a given that Chicago will land him.
