In his postseason State of the Organization address a couple days ago, Theo Epstein said a great deal without actually saying a great deal. One thing about which he was quite clear, however, was the need to bolster the rotation.
“Whether it’s through trade or free agency,” the Cubs top exec stated, “we’d like to add at least one quality starting pitcher.”
That certainly seemed to leave the door open to a bit of movement when it comes to the core of the team, though Epstein expressed a desire to leave it intact.
“I would love to have our entire position group back,” Epstein explained.
