Over the past couple of seasons, the team the Cubs have been most associated with in acquiring starting pitching from is the New York Mets. They are, as we saw in the playoffs, loaded with young controllable starters, after all. With David Price now going to the Red Sox and Jordan Zimmerman going to the Tigers, the Cubs will almost assuredly get the best pitcher they acquire from the trade market. And while the Mets still make a lot of sense as a trade partner, the team they may match up with best is the rebuilding Atlanta Braves.
