The Rundown: Crafty Staff May Stretch More Easily, Hendricks a Reluctant Ace, Little Could Surprise, Happ Arb Results Due Today

It’s still early, but I have been thinking about the state of the Cubs right now and, though I know hope springs eternal, I’m starting to like the roster construction at this point. The team is counting on a lot of little things to go right in order to contend for the division, and I think some of the moves Jed Hoyer has made should at least give the team an understated confidence to compete for a division championship. Focusing on workforce management could be the key to any success the North Siders have this year.
