Cubs' Jed Hoyer faces pressure amid tough roster decisions

Cubs general manager Jed Hoyer's recent comments have raised concerns among fans regarding the team's ability to compete. Despite the Cubs losing 18 of their last 24 games, Hoyer has reportedly indicated that he is not inclined to trade for players like Tarik Skubal or Freddy Peralta unless the team's performance significantly improves. This has led to frustration, as many believe Hoyer has not adequately addressed the roster's weaknesses, particularly given the injuries faced by the team. As the summer approaches, the Cubs' path forward remains uncertain.
