4/30/24 The best way for the Cubs to improve the rotation may not be via trade. The Chicago Cubs are playing great baseball right now despite the injuries to key players they've faced early and often in the 2024 season. Every good team looks to get better when the trade deadline rolls around though and the Cubs should be no different. Before he was lost to the season with an elbow injury, Shane Bieber was heavily linked to the Cubs and now that the Astros may be sellers by the time the deadline rolls around, Justin Verlander looks like he may make sense as a target. The bullpen has been an area of need and at various points in time, the crosstown rival Michael Kopech was viewed as an option but he's been mediocre.
