Cubs interested in Brandon McCarthy and Shaun Marcum
According to Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun Times the Cubs “already
have expressed interest in” Brandon McCarthy and “another buy-low candidate
the Cubs are eyeing” is Shaun Marcum.
General manager Jed Hoyer indicated that the Cubs will probably try to sign
some veterans to reasonably priced one- or two-year deals, like they did last
offseason with Paul Maholm and David DeJesus.
Whether or not health-related question marks are enough to drop McCarthy or
Marcum into that sort of contract range remains to be seen, but Hoyer called
the short-term, bounce-back deals “a good model of contract that really
served us well.”
It’s no surprise that the Cubs are pursuing veteran starting pitching on the
free agent market considering they nearly acquired Dan Haren from the Angels
for Carlos Marmol before that deal fell apart at the last minute.
