2/26/25 MACK - Deep Dive: Alexander Canario. The Mets sent the Cubs some moolah for once highly projected prospect, outfielder Alexander Canario. The hard-hitting outfield prospect, Alexander Canario, is in a very weird position in the Cubs' organization. On the surface, Canario had a pretty good year in Iowa, hitting 18 home runs in under 300 plate appearances while posting an isolated slugging over .270 and an overall line good for 116 wRC+.

By Todd Welter | Share on Facebook Share on X Copy Article Patrick Gorski-Imagn Images Share on Facebook Share on X Share on Reddit Copy Article The Chicago White Sox are at the beginning stages of an extensive rebuild where the front office should be acquiring as many former highly regarded prospects cast off by their previous organizations as they can. As silly as it sounds, the Sox might still be able to find immediate long-term help if they can tap into something other teams have not. The White Sox have already brought in Owen White

2/20/25 Chicago Cubs Shockingly Designate Promising Outfielder for Assignment. The Chicago Cubs have surprised many around the league with a roster decision on Thursday morning. As first reported by Jesse Rogers of ESPN, the Cubs have designated outfielder Alexander Canario for assignment in order to make room for the recent signing on veteran infielder Justin Turner. Given Canario is out of minor league options, he would have had to either be on the 40-man roster or be DFA'd at the end of spring training regardless. Canario will almost certainly be traded over the next week rather than waived outright after he has shown serious promise in limited MLB action and in Triple-A. In 21 games for Chicago across 2023 and 2024, Canario has slashed .286/.333/.524 with two home runs and eight RBI, an admittedly small sample size but a solid one nonetheless.

2/13/25 Alexander Canario may have just checked an important box for the Chicago Cubs. One of the important yet less discussed storylines for the Chicago Cubs this season is that outfield prospect Alexander Canario is out of options. The fact Canario is already out of minor-league options despite having less than 50 plate appearances over the last two seasons speaks to the lack of plan the Cubs have had for their outfield prospect. In case you're keeping tabs, Canario has slashed .286/.333/.524/135wRC+ with 2 home runs in 45 plate appearances at the Major League level. The sample size, while small, does suggest that Canario is capable of being an effective hitter at the Major League level but the biggest reason he has gone by the wayside during his momentary stints at the the Major League level in 2023 and 2024 is the logjam the team has had in the outfield.

5/08/24 Alexander Canario's Chicago Cubs future is further in question after latest demotion. Alexander Canario is heading back down to Iowa as the Chicago Cubs brought their star slugger Cody Bellinger back from injury much sooner than expected for Tuesday night's game. Bellinger's bat is sorely needed in a lineup that has been struggling mightily to score runs of late. For Canario, however, it's another disappointing development on the road to becoming a major league regular that begs questions about whether that day will ever come with the Cubs. Since first making the majors in September of last year, the right-handed outfielder has struggled to get consistent playing time in Chicago despite becoming a respectable offensive force in the minors.

4/20/24 Four-run sixth inning powers Cubs to doubleheader split vs. Marlins. Rookie left fielder Alexander Canario swung at the first pitch he saw in his sixth-inning at-bat and connected on a no-doubt home run to left field. Canario's home run ignited a Cubs offense that found its groove late in Saturday's 5-3 win vs. the Marlins in the second game of the doubleheader. “In the sixth inning, we put together some good at-bats,” manager Craig Counsell said. Canario was the second Cubs player to homer (center fielder Cody Bellinger hit one in the first inning) and it opened the floodgates for the Cubs.

Chicago Cubs No. 10 Prospect Viewed as Top Trade Candidate The Chicago Cubs No. 10 prospect, a right-handed hitting outfielder, is deemed the top early trade candidate for the trade deadline. Author: Jon Conahan Apr 17, 2024 In this story: Chicago Cubs Alexander Canario MLB From the looks of things, the Chicago Cubs should find themselves in a position to make moves around the MLB trade deadline. After making Craig Counsell the highest-paid manager in baseball, the expectation was for the Cubs to do what was needed to make them a contender. During the offseason, the front office made impressive moves, but there was certainly more that could've been done. While the start of the season has seen

4/15/24 Alexander Canario promotion raises injury concern for Chicago Cubs. Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Alexander Canario appears to be getting another look at the Major League level. During his Monday morning hit on ESPN 1000, Jesse Rogers reported that the Cubs are promoting Canario from Triple-A Iowa ahead of their series against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Canario was among the final group of players in consideration for the final spot on the Cubs' bench but the spot ultimately went to utility infielder Miles Mastrobuoni.
