The National Baseball Hall of Fame has decided to recast Andre Dawson's plaque, changing it from a Montreal Expos cap to a blank one. Dawson, who was inducted in 2010, had requested a Chicago Cubs hat three years ago to better reflect his affinity for the team. The board approved the blank cap option unanimously, acknowledging it as a choice Dawson would have selected if available at the time.
Chicago Cubs prospect Moisés Ballesteros is expected to take on a significant role in 2026 after impressing in limited major league action last season.
