The Chicago Cubs are expected to target Howie Kendrick in free agency this winter, according to sources.
Chicago has a stacked infield, but changes could be coming including a possible Starlin Castro trade to make room for Addison Russell at shortstop. Javier Baez could take over at third base if Kris Bryant is moved to left field.
Kendrick and manager Joe Maddon spent time together in the Los Angeles Angels organization.
