Heyman On Cubs, Valverde, Bell, Hernandez

Jon Heyman of SI.com runs through the Cubs’ options for their open GM position and concludes that White Sox assistant GM Rick Hahn is “perhaps the most logical choice” for chairman Tom Ricketts. Click here for more rumblings about the Cubs and keep reading for Heyman’s other notes from around MLB... 

• Manager Mike Quade is seen as a “long shot” to return as the Cubs’ manager next year.
• The Tigers will “surely” exercise Jose Valverde’s $8MM option for 2012, Heyman writes.
• No one with the Giants or Padres saw a Heath Bell trade as a likely possibility, according to Heyman. The Giants won the claim for Bell earlier in the week.
• The Reds are believed to be open to trading Ramon Hernandez, since catching prospect Devin Mesoraco could replace him. Hernandez hit the waiver wire this week.
