The Chicago Cubs have a solid chance of landing one of the star starting pitchers in MLB free agency.
While the Cubs could pursue another elite starting pitcher, they have other holes on the roster that look to be more of a need. However, the rumors have been persistent that Jed Hoyer and the front office could add another starter to their rotation.Fried would be a huge addition for the Cubs. Again, a starting pitcher is not the biggest need, but signing the 30-year-old starter would give them one of the best rotations in baseball.
There is a chance that signing Fried could give them the ability to move on from Taillon in a trade. Assad could also be shipped out of town. Both players could bring in a piece to help in the lineup. Those numbers would certainly help the Cubs as they look to get back into the playoffs. Over the last few years, they have come up short and have not been able to be a contender in the National League.
