Cubs left-hander Justin Steele and right-hander Keegan Thompson could get the chance for bigger roles this year.
How much the Cubs are willing to spend on any players during this transition season is unclear — never mind how much in a starting pitching market that has already been picked clean of the top 15 or so free agents and that could cost a high price in player capital for a reliable trade target.
Manager David Ross on Tuesday said swingman Alec Mills — who threw a no-hitter in 2020 — has been penciled into his rotation, pending any roster changes. Whether they can improve on the options they have in-house to cover Alzolay’s absence, here’s what those options look like for now: “I’m coming into this spring exactly as I have every other spring,” Steele said when asked about what might be a chance to claim a bigger role with his close friend, Alzolay, on the shelf.
