The Chicago Cubs have some work to do this offseason after missing the 2024 MLB Playoffs. While this ball club has many needs, one of them is starting pitching.
Two notable names have been mentioned as possible suitors for the Cubbies and both happen to be World Series champions. Atlanta Braves lefty Max Fried and Texas Rangers veteran Nathan Eovaldi.
Via The Athletic:
“Max Fried would fit that description as a consistent, high-level performer throughout his time with the Atlanta Braves. So would Nathan Eovaldi, assuming he declines his $20 million player option with the Texas Rangers for next season.
