No surprise Eloy is unemployed – minor league deal for him is probably his only option for ‘25. Maybe he will actually take training seriously and avoid a waste of the incredible talent he was blessed with.

Loved the guy during his first year, but he’s a complete clown and out of shape.
Thanks Cubs!
Live comes at you fast, Eloy
Eloy, Jose & TA could lead a AA team to a championship
Just as aspected as Moncada’s option being declined.
Eloy will be lucky to get a guaranteed deal for a few million next year. He’s gonna have to go someplace like Miami or the A’s to try to prove he can still hit for power.
Edit: Sox “locked up” 3 guys in their rebuild. Eloy and Moncada both have their options declined because they were ridiculously high. Robert js coming off a horrible season. Fun stuff
Jimenez is another example of a player who signed for big bucks and then stopped giving a s*** about how he did.
Maybe the Cubs can re-sign him so I can see him on the Peoria Chiefs.
This is what 0 work ethic does to you in the pros. You wont last no matter your talent.
I have to wonder if he’s dumb enough to be surprised by this…
