Should the Cubs re-sign Tyler Chatwood?

Ah, what could have been.

The Cubs signed Tyler Chatwood to a three-year, $38 million contract before the 2018 season. He’d been reasonably good away from Coors Field, his previous home park, and the thought was that he could continue that with Wrigley Field as his home.

Nope, nope and nope. Chatwood was pretty much the worst pitcher in the major leagues in 2018. He led the major leagues in walks with 95 and the pitcher who was second, Lucas Giolito (and there’s a huge career turnaround for you), with 90, threw 70 more innings than Chatwood did.
