The Chicago Cubs enter this offseason with no shortage of roster questions, but rebuilding the bullpen is chief amongst them.
Nearly every reliever from last year's team hit free agency this winter, aside from Porter Hodge and Daniel Palencia. The team also non-tendered Eli Morgan, so Jed Hoyer has plenty of work to do. They've already added former St. Louis Cardinal Phil Maton to a two-year contract, and he figures to be on the expensive end of the type of reliever that the Cubs typically target.
Ever since Craig Kimbrel's expensive and disappointing tenure in Chicago, the team has been gun-shy about signing big-name relievers.
