  • Jon Heyman Names Cubs as a Possible Andrew Chafin Suitor

    The Cubs (along with the Brewers and Twins) are among potential landing spots for Arizona Diamondbacks reliever Andrew Chafin, according to a tweet from Jon Heyman. There's no question the Cubs are in the market for a lefty reliever, and old friend and failed starter Chafin would be like slipping into a comfortable pair of old sneakers.

    I think, though, that the Cubs are trying to buy a new pair instead. This feels like a fallback maneuver, should their pursuit of both Aaron Bummer and Brooks Raley come to naught. In fact, that might be the case for all three of the teams Heyman listed. 

    What do you think? A return engagement for Chafin?

    They should have just freakin signed him as he languished on the market. Just get him to dial in the control again and you should be golden. He has a career high chase rate and has allowed a career low contact rate, so I think the stuff is clearly still there. Just too many walks.

    Lol 'failed starter' is such a weird dig for a guy who started 3 games for Arizona 9 years ago and has 516 relief appearances since then.

    so many threads

    The insanity ends in a few hours, I promise.

    While it seems like a lot in the moment, these rumor topics and articles are laying groundwork for SEO that will benefit the site for years to come. There *is* a method in all of this madness.
