Oakland Athletics Could Draw Interest From Chicago Cubs

The Oakland Athletics may find themselves cozying up to an old trade partner, the Chicago Cubs, once more.

The Cubs now have a Dexter Fowler-sized hole in the outfield, and it is unclear if the club wants to replace him full time with Chris Coghlan, who they slotted into five different positions over 142 games in 2015. They also have a back-end starting rotation slot to fill now that Dan Haren has entered retirement, and Tsuyoshi Wada elected to finish his career with Fukuoka Softbank in Japan.
