Creating a Taxi Squad

Spring training is here and the Cubs are continuing to add arms to the organization for a hopeful run at a championship. Now adding Manny Parra or Aaron Crow are the kind of moves that fans only say World Series here we come derisively, but they are the low risk moves that every team makes. What is more is that recent Cubs history has several notable examples of reclamation projects like this playing meaningful roles on Cubs teams in Kevin Gregg and Shawn Camp.

These low risk stashes though are not the thing I find most interesting about the Cubs less heralded roster moves of the offseason.
