Chicago Cubs News: Jake Arrieta to Philly; a crowded outfield situation

Someday, there will be a major free agent signing. I promise. Until then, we’ll keep breaking down every imaginable aspect of the Chicago Cubs and any semi-lukewarm rumblings from the Hot Stove.

Yesterday, free agent right-hander Jake Arrieta added another potential suitor in the Philadelphia Phillies. At first, it might not fit in your mind as a realistic landing spot. I know I was in that group when I initially saw the report. But, after breaking down what the Phillies have heading into 2018, I can’t say I’d be shocked if they get into the fray here in the last month of the offseason.
