Episode Notes

Jon Heyman dropped a major bombshell on December 23rd, reporting that the Chicago Cubs could be in on not just Tatsuya Imai — but ALSO Japanese slugger Kazuma Okamoto 👀🇯🇵

On this episode of Chicago Cubs Central, Mike breaks down:
⚾ Why the Cubs are suddenly linked to TWO elite Japanese stars
⚾ What it would mean if Kazuma Okamoto’s value plummets
⚾ Could the Cubs actually land Okamoto AND Imai on bargain deals?
⚾ Would YOU want the Cubs to sign the 29-year-old power bat if the price is right?
⚾ Is this the bold move Cubs fans have been waiting for this offseason?

Okamoto has been one of Japan’s most consistent power hitters, and pairing him with Imai could completely change the Cubs’ outlook for 2025 and beyond. Is this smart roster building… or another offseason gamble?

💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments:
👉 Would you sign Okamoto if his market crashes?
👉 Would landing BOTH players save the Cubs’ offseason?
