The Cubs Minus 40lbs!

Give Big Geo credit for losing the weight this offseason.

He dropped 40lbs, which is no small feat. And of course, the hope is he’s lost his sophomore slump with the extra weight, too.

As a tribute to Soto, here’s what some other Cubs would weigh-in at having lost 40lbs–not that they all should, of course. But if there is a lone exception it’s none other than the round mound of pounds that is Carlos Silva.
