[QUOTE="champaignchris, post: 1402663, member: 26283"] Cubs got Jesse Chavez from Texas for a marginal A-ball prospect. Since his boy-band career ended in the early ‘00s, Chavez has been a journeyman spot starter/long reliever. He’s averaged 120 innings a year over the last 4 and has nearly 60 innings this year without any starts. Good command, but gives up the gopher ball. ERA typically in the low 4s. On one hand, he’s just a guy who can chew some innings without sucking too much. On the other hand, he gives the Cubs the option of having Montgomery in the rotation long term or of making Montgomery a piece in a larger trade. Jesse Rogers wrote for ESPN yesterday that Montgomery would be one of the pieces the Mets would want in a DeGrom trade. [/QUOTE]
