Cubs may once again have a trade solution hiding on the Mets’ pitching staff
Jed Hoyer's recent answer to the Chicago Cubs' rotation shortcomings? Put together a trade with the New York Mets. First, they plucked left-hander David Peterson from David Stearns' club in June, then followed it up with the trade that netted Clay Holmes and Tyrone Taylor ahead of the deadline this summer.
So why not dip back into that well again this winter? If ownership is truly insistent on avoiding any sort of legitimate Tarik Skubal pursuit, Hoyer may have no choice but to cobble together a rotation through a combination of free-agent signings and trades - and one name drawing interest on the trade front is Mets' right-hander Kodai Senga.
