And he’s the most realistic option.

They are currently at $243 million with the CBT threshold at $244 million. They are going over the threshold regardless so if the opportunity is there to add something that could be impactful they should.

For the right deal I’m in on Gallen though if they could find something better I’d be for that too.

Right now fangraphs depth charts which is currently based on steamer has the Cubs projected as the 7th best position player group and the 19th best pitching group and as a subset the 20th best starters.

They could use another impactful starter. Gallen over the last two months was pretty good maybe it’s him. I expect them to be involved with him but if someone is more committed to him they’ll let him go.
