The big 3 OPS:
Bryant: .861
Rizzo: .792
Baez: .775
Team OPS before deadline: .704
The 4A:
Wisdom: .853
Schwindel: 1.066
Ortega: .836
Team OPS after deadline: .657
We can see from the numbers above, albeit small sample sizes. that the Cubs have actually improved their offensive production, at two positions, by making room their AAAA players. I don't think this is sustainable and I don't think this means that our AAAA players can be here long term.
This is more to point out how bad our core was, outside of Bryant. If the core can be replaced with hot streaks from AAAA players then the core was a rotten core. They couldn't be paid multi years deals that would strangle us financially.
