Bruce Levine posted this article yesterday stating the Cubs were interested in José Abreu and Corey Kluber.
We’ve already covered Abreu here, so let’s take a look at Kluber. Levine writes:
Right-hander Corey Kluber, 36, is on the Cubs’ radar, sources said. He was 10-10 with a 4.34 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 164 innings across 31 starts for the Rays in 2022. He struck out 139 batters and walked just 21.
The Cubs like the young pitching making its way through their organization, so it would be ideal for them to spend money on veteran pitchers in free agency on one- or two-year deals.
