Report: Cubs could pursue J.A. Happ

The Chicago Cubs could reportedly be looking at another starter ahead of the MLB trade deadline.

According to Bob Elliott of CBC Sports, the Cubs could be after Toronto Blue Jays starter J.A. Happ, who is drawing a good amount of interest from around the league.

It seems like the Cubs end up hunting for rotation help every year, and this season will be no different. Yu Darvish has been hurt and not quite as advertised when healthy, while Tyler Chatwood can’t stop walking people and cannot be relied upon.

The Cubs don’t really need an ace, but a name like Happ would suit them in terms of rotation depth without costing them a huge amount of prospects. The problem is that will make him popular with several other teams as well.
