Hey Craig, yes, you've landed on the correct interpretation: there is no excuse for the 2023 Cubs - who have at least top 5 resources in the game, banked salary from 2022, play in the terrible NL Central, and multiple serious needs that can be addressed via FA - to spend just ~$190M in 2023.

The White Sox spent nearly $210M in 2022. I cannot envision any valid reason for any Cub team to ever spend less than the Southsiders.
