Chicago Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said Monday that the team is looking at its future, not the 2024 season, when considering deals at the upcoming trade deadline.

The Cubs entered the week in fourth place in the National League Central -- just a half-game above the last-place Cincinnati Reds -- but are just 3 1/2 games out of the final NL wild-card spot.
