And then the Boston Red Sox traded with the Brewers for Caleb Durbin.

That fills their need.

They did not get what they wanted from the Cubs in terms of Nico and the Matt Shaw conversations apparently did not go well enough for both sides to consummate something there.

But I think we can sit in good thought that Nico Horner will be a member of these Chicago Cubs.

We can relax about that, at least for the start of the season and what will hopefully be a run towards the playoffs.

I think without an extension, that conversation won't go away.

The name might be out there, like where this stuff comes from.

You can't control that.

But if there's an extension, then nobody would end up throwing it out there.

I just do love, and I got this on good authority from an outside Chicago source, I'll say that, that Red Sox called about Nico and ended up having to talk about Matt Shaw instead.

Because there's no Sean?

Yeah.

We'll be back March 22nd.

And I got even better news for you, Spiegs.

It's not two weeks from Friday that's the first game.

It's a week from Friday.

It's a week from Friday.

I think we are because WBC is early, so a lot of stuff is starting early in that regard.

Yes, we have, man.

There's all kinds of insurance issues that are going on for all sorts of different teams.
