On a new team, Cubs left-hander Drew Smyly might not have been so bold about making adjustments in spring training.
“And honestly, some of those tweaks I might not have even known about,” Smyly told the Sun-Times. “The team might not have even told me, or they might not have known.”
Back with the Cubs, Smyly’s taking advantage of the kind of stability that’s been missing for years in his journeyman career.
Smyly’s start Friday, as he limited the Twins to two runs in six innings, extended his strong beginning of the season and put the Cubs in position to beat the Twins 6-2.
