I think the 2025 Cubs are going to have a filthy pitching staff. The rotation is already well-stocked and we have reinforcements coming. I actually think they are set up to have their best pens in several years, one that will have one of the highest average velos in the league. My concern lies in the offense and to what extent Jed will be willing to go to fix it. The holes are obvious but at premium positions where there will be plenty of competition. I don't even consider us a Soto suitor because I'm just an automoton with a chip in my brain controlled by the Rothschilds. Being the last year of his contract, however, he should be turning over every stone (not letting a Murphy, Contreras get away without a glance) and has plenty of prospect surplus to make major upgrades in any way possible.
