As good as the Chicago Cubs bullpen has been, the starting rotation has left plenty to be desired this season. Thankfully, the pitching staff will hopefully receive some reinforcements in the coming weeks in the form of a trio of injured arms who are set to begin rehab assignments.
Trevor Williams, who the Cubs signed in the offseason as part of their overhaul of the rotation, underwent an emergency appendectomy last month and hasn’t pitched since. That’s not to say things had gone entirely well prior to that point, though.
