Edward Cabrera, Chicago Cubs

The Chicago Cubs entered the postseason needing to fill many holes on their roster, but the most important of them all was to acquire a frontline starting pitcher.

With left-handers Framber Valdez and Ranger Suarez still on the free agent market, but demanding a hefty price tag, the Cubs opted to make a trade to acquire the starter they’ve coveted. According to Bleacher Nation’s Michael Cerami, the Cubs are finalizing a deal with the Miami Marlins to acquire right-hander Edward Cabrera.

Cabrera, 23, was among the top trade candidates this offseason and has the upside of being a No. 2 starter, which is exactly what the Cubs have been looking for. Cabrera was solid, pitching to an 8-7 record with a 3.53 ERA (26 starts), while striking out 150 batters in 137.2 innings.

Edward Cabrera will bolster the Chicago Cubs’ rotation

Despite not having a big name in their rotation like Cy Young award winner with divisional foe the Pittsburgh Pirates, Paul Skenes, the Cubs had the eighth-best starters’ ERA (3.83). Though he’s not a star, Cabrera will add depth to the Cubs’ rotation but also help it round out into one of the better rotations in the National League, joining All-Stars Matthew Boyd and Shota Imanaga.

Unlikely to re-sign outfielder Kyle Tucker, given his price tag, the Cubs are building a strong pitching staff, adding left-handers Holby Milner and Caleb Theilbar, and right-handers Hunter Harvey and Jacob Webb to one-year deals. With still a ways to go until Opening Day, the Cubs could add one or two more arms to their pitching staff to account for any potential injury that could occur.
