I thought about making this a daily facepalm post, but the 'daily' in it stretches the incredulity even beyond our level of discreditedness. So I have revived its predecessor instead.
Cubs Hires
- I had been waiting for the Cubs to hire Jim Hickey as the new pitching coach to write a new post, but they took something like four weeks to announce it and by that point everyone just kind of assumed that he had already been hired and it was barely news.
- Brandon Hyde is the new bench coach, with Dave Martinez heading to the Nationals.
- Former Padre Will Venable retired and is the Cubs new first base coach.
- They also hired special assistant Jim Benedict, who may or may not be some kind of pitching guru who was axed in the Marlins new ownership purge.
Qualifying Offers
- As expected, the Cubs made QOs to Arrieta and Davis, who turned them down.
- Under the current rules, the Cubs will net two picks at the end of the second round.
Awards
- Anthony Rizzo won the Clemente Award, which honors players for community involvement and contributions off the field.
- Soon to be former Miami Marlin Giancarlo Stanton won the MVP award in a surprisingly close vote, edging out Joey Votto by just two points. KB also picked up a first place vote somehow.
- The only other Cubs to pick up votes in the major awards were Ian Happ and Joe Maddon, who got lone back of the ballot votes from someone(s).
Ice Cold Stove
- Pretty much nothing has happened so far this offseason. It seems like things are going to start happening more quickly once the two giant dominoes fall, namely, Giancarlo Stanton being traded and Ohtani selecting some team. I don't have particularly high hopes that the Cubs pick up either of them.
- Alex Cobb seems like the most likely guy for the Cubs to pick up. After that, we'll have to take a wait and see approach.

Maybe they try to sign him for less than what he’d have gotten in arbitration. It seems like he’d lost Joe’s confidence (and rightly so), so I kind of doubt it.

It is surprising that the pinstripes are out of the running, though they are a pretty conservative team (despite their bullpen usage) with a new manager of unknown quantity. But since no east coast teams were chosen, maybe he just does not like the east coast.
If not the Cubs, I am hoping for the Mariners or Padres to pick him up. Please not the Dodgers or Giants.

dmick89Quote Reply

RynoQuote Reply
dmick89,
The main thing for me is how much they’re putting into the pitching staff. Other than Hendricks and Edwards, none of the impact pitchers came through the system.
With Lester’s contract and the prospects to acquire Quintana, the Cubs have invested quite a bit in a rotation that still needs two starters. They also need to bring in at least two good relievers, as you said.
I know their lineup offsets this a bit, but those position players are going to start costing a lot really soon. I’d like to see them not spending too much on pitchers that aren’t quite good enough to be in a rotation.
RynoQuote Reply
Ryno,
And I also realize Hendricks and Edwards came from the Rangers’ system…
RynoQuote Reply
That’s understandable and I’m fine with the Cubs signing a few AAAA starters to try out in the bullpen, I still think they need to add at least two good relievers. It would be nice if the Cubs could count on Justin Wilson to do anything other than walk every other batter he faces, but I don’t have high expectations of that happening.

The Cubs have at least three relievers with a better projection than Morrow. Rondon also had a better projection and would have been less expensive. People are very prone to recency bias, but even more so with relief pitchers.

They totally do. And I don’t mind paying money or prospects for a reliever like Chapman was in ’16. Or Andrew Miller. Relievers are just so volatile…

sharpchicityQuote Reply
I love projections as much as the next fag-statter, but I tend to look at reliever ones as the least reliable, perhaps even worthless, and thus probably not a good reason to yay or nay a reliever signing.
For my part, given the volatility of relievers, the only way I give a crap one way or another (outside of the truly transformative bullpen arms, of which I can count on one hand) is whether or not a signing impedes the team’s ability to add a more useful, reliable piece in the immediate future. If Morrow doesn’t hinder the club’s ability to add bats and SP arms, then I don’t really care, and maybe it will work out. Volatility goes both ways, and he was pretty good last year. Maybe he can be pretty good again. If the money’s there to burn, and it doesn’t keep the Cubs from pursuing a Darvish (assuming they’re interested) worth a shot to see, I think.

Much depends on what the contract terms end up being, but if the idea is to find another Wade Davis without paying Wade Davis prices, you’re gonna have to roll the dice on someone like a Brandon Morrow.
Personally, I won’t much care either way. Closer is likely going to be a recurring issue over the next few years since the Cubs passed on even pursuing the most projectable, reliable sort a year ago.
And if it’s between Morrow and Davis at this point, I’d definitely roll Morrow and the discount over Davis.

5th worst K/BB ratio (1.6) over 2016-2017. 7th worst K%-BB% of 6.8%. Not really my type of pitcher, but the ERA has been outperforming the FIP for awhile now, so ok. I guess he’s also a decent candidate for a “change of scenery” so maybe it will all work out.

I take this as the Cubs moving on from Otani and just signing all the available starters they can because otherwise I hate this.
dmick89Quote Reply
I hope the Cubs sign someone like Darvish, or trade for solid pitcher. If they try to fill out their rotation with high risk upside guys it’s going to be a disappointing offseason.
EdwinQuote Reply
Health is definitely a concern, but he’s made 25 starts the last two years. Averaging only ten for the next three seems a tad too far on the pessimistic side of things. I worry more about him being bad than hurt.
But I don’t mind the signing. It’s higher risk than I generally prefer, but I get what the Cubs are doing. There’s some youth in Chatwood’s arm still, and with the change of scenery (and not just any old change of scenery either, but the most dramatic kind there is), the velo, the GB rate, spin rate, and all that other crap, there’s the potential for the Cubs to make out reasonably well here. I would imagine they have pretty high hopes, as they wouldn’t have spent 3 years and almost 40 mil otherwise. Just have to hope they’re seeing things better than we are.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
I heard it’s already happened. I also heard it’s possible that Ohtani will die before he makes his decision.
One thing I do know: There is no team named the RNagers.
RynoQuote Reply
If they’re not, then we’re following the wrong team.
RynoQuote Reply
I disagree. I think they genuinely like Chatwood. Like a lot a lot. If this were late January and everyone else were gone, then I’d say it’s probable the Cubs had gone into fuck-it-gotta-sign-somebody mode. But they jumped the market to sign him to 3 years and 40MM, an amount nobody thought he’d get.
Which makes me think the Cubs see something that projects pretty well here, and they wanted to snap him up before somebody else figured it out and beat them to it.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
I’ll admit. I lean towards trusting the FO on most things they do. They’ve earned a lot of space to fuck up with me. Doesn’t mean they won’t fuck up and haven’t fucked up, especially in the FA market, but in most cases I can at least understand and agree with the thought process behind the moves they make, which is a far cry from what I’ve been able to say about any other Cubs FO regime.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
I’m not sure liking someone a lot a lot erases a horrible strikeout to walk ratio or serious health issues. Other than spin rate and a good fastball I’m not sure what’s to like. If you told me the Cubs signed Chatwood to be a late inning reliever, I’d probably like the singing until I saw how much they signed him for. Speaking of that, Chatwood would fit right in with this bullpen.
dmick89Quote Reply
It’s worth pointing out that the good fastball and spin rate have done nothing to help him throw strikes or strike people out. He’s relatively young so an improvement isn’t unheard of, but I’m not expecting one. I expect a back of the rotation starter for 10-15 starts per year over three seasons.
dmick89Quote Reply
If people are telling me that teams were lining up to sign Chatwood for $35-40 million then I guess that makes Darvish worth about $600 million over 4 or 5 years. Kris Bryant would like to sign an extension in this market. He’d be the first trillion dollar player and that would be a team friendly deal so there’s no way Boras allows that.
dmick89Quote Reply
https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/what-the-cubs-might-see-in-tyler-chatwood/
One thing I’ve seen mentioned is the idea that he would throw his curve more, but for a guy who really struggles with control, would that be wise? I’d think a curveball would be harder to control than a fastball, so while he might get more swings and misses, it could also lead to more walks, or falling behind more in counts.
EdwinQuote Reply
One of the things I heard was that he could try and raise his release point in order to better utilize the spin rate and create more movement. Although who knows if that would throw off his control, or mess with his ground ball rate.
EdwinQuote Reply
I wasn’t saying I thought they liked the cut of his jib, man. I think they like the raw ability and think there’s a lot more there that can be tapped, especially now that he no longer has to pitch half his games in the insane asylum of Coors Field (a factor that I think is hard to overstate). It’s a worthy gamble, imo. Have to be willing to do a few of those if you’re going to realize some upside. And it’s really not that much money. I’m not thrilled about the three years, but eh, whatever.
As I thought I said above, I’m not doing cartwheels over the signing, but I’m okay with it. My guess is he more or less works out as a solid backend rotation piece, a reasonable Hammel/Lackey sort if things break okay. But there is also reason to think he could be quite a bit more. And, yes, he could also end up being a total waste of money and piss us all off when he does rarely pitch.
Against Arrieta and the Cardinals.
Who light him up and shut us down.
In other words, it could go either way.
Which as we all know is big, if true.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
If the Cubs go out and sign Darvish and Cobb I’ll like this a lot more. He’d probably still get his 10 starts that he’s going to get anyway and he’s way better than Tseng or anything else the Cubs have in their system.
Also, I get trusting this front office to some extent. They’re very good at what they do, but they’ve probably hit on as many as they’ve missed when it comes to free agents. If you factor in how awful the Heyward signing looks at this point and how bad the Lester signing may end up being unless 2016 was more of a fluke like I’m hoping, they’ve only been decent at signing free agents.
$38 million isn’t worth being upset about so whatever. Hopefully they add a couple better starters yet this offseason.

GWQuote Reply

GWQuote Reply
Agreed. But then, I think “decent” is about the best you can hope for from a FO in free agency. Maybe I’m not thinking it through enough but I can’t think of a single organization that crushes it in free agency on a regular basis. It’s a route you want to avoid whenever you can.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
Also, I know the Heyward signing hasn’t worked out, but I still really liked that move. The sort you want a FO to make every time if they can. So I’m not going to knock them for that one. I really wanted it, and I was over the moon when it happened. Who knew he’d completely stop hitting baseballs?
And the Lester deal has been more or less a success, imo. A down year last year, definitely, but not the first one he’s ever had. We’ll see if the trend continues or whether he has another couple good years left. It’s already half over and it accomplished what it was designed to do: be a vital part of a WS Cubs team. I don’t think the expectations for the backend of it were for him to be a TOR into his mid-to-late 30s. They weren’t my expectations anyway.
Smokestack LightningQuote Reply
I’m inclined to trust this front office just because I spent the first 40 years of my life watching the Cubs be run into the ground by a endless parade of dipshits and now I have a “2016 World Series Champions” license plate holder. It’s tough for me to justify getting bent out of shape like I used to, even if there’s evidence that I should.
If I had to guess, at least part of the whole thing with signing Jimmy Chitwood is just an effort to get a deal done in front of the rush in what looks like an extreme seller’s market. Wasn’t $13 mil a year Edwin Jackson money, like, five years ago? I’d prefer this to rolling the dice on this year’s Bert Anderson.

Absolutely. It was a great thing at the time and if Harper makes it to free agency, I hope they aren’t reluctant to go after him because of Heyward. Not that those two are comparable or anything, but you know what I mean.

Best case scenario for both would probably favor Stanton by at least a win or two, but yeah. No way would I trade Schwarber in that deal. If the Cubs were interested, the only outfield I can see working is Schwarber, Heyward and Stanton.
I probably wouldn’t do it unless the Marlins paid half the contract and even then I’d only send them no more than Almora.
I have no idea why Stanton included the Cubs in his no-trade list. The Cubs aren’t going to have any interest in him. Too expensive and there are probably better ways to improve the team than picking up a huge contract for someone who can’t stay healthy.
