Title: ?Free Agents?
Post by: CBStew on January 26, 2017, 10:24:12 AM
Hammel, T. wood, Joe Smith.  Should the Cubs try to hold on to any of these pitchers?  Are there other free agent pitchers that the Cubs have shown an interest in?  When a team has a winning formula substantial changes are worrisome.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Cubs and Wood eventually come up with something for a year. Wood is sort of this year's Fowler where the market evidently wasn't as strong as he would have thought.

I think the Anderson contract pretty much closed the door on Wood.
