If Chatwood can get this, I'd guess Cobb is going to be way more than I'd want to spend too.
Yeah, Cobb is going to be way pricier than numbers that were being mentioned earlier on.
Wonder if Chatwood's a guy who might be a good transition to relief? I'm not suggesting that's the plan or anything, but often things don't follow plan. Seems like he might be the sort who, in relief, the control would be less a thing; the fastball would play up; and with faster fastball the curve might become more deadly. And as is routine with wild starters, throwing fewer pitches in relief can help become more consistent.
Or, heh heh, if they were to, say, sign Cobb, and then Otani stunned everybody and unexpectedly chose the Cubs,
, ghdn maybe a Chadwood could get bumped to the pen and become a stud reliever or something!
At 28, hopefully the Cubs have some ideas and Hickey can help Chatwood to step up his game, and he's ready to break through as a consistently good starter.
