If the Cubs plan to get aggressive this winter and spend, as promised, then picking up the $10 million option on Drew Smyly’s contract could be the right head start.
The Cubs have promised to spend this winter to improve their bad and rebuilding ballclub, and that should include at least one frontline quality starter— such as Giants starter Carlos Rodón, who struck out 11 Cubs to add to his league-leading total and has a 2.93 ERA in his second straight All-Star season.
“It’s why he’s been on so many teams trying to get him back,” Cubs manager David Ross said. “Because when he’s healthy, you know what kind of pitcher you’re capable of getting.” “That was probably the outlier,” Ross said of the Cardinals start. “We’re more used to seeing a lot of this.” He has made it clear more than once this season that he loves pitching at Wrigley Field — “it’s very special” — and wants to stay .
