Summary
The Cubs are in deep pitching trouble as starters and relievers alike hit the injured list, forcing the front office into frantic moves. They traded for lefty David Peterson, who pitched well in his debut, and snagged Bryse Wilson off waivers — who praised manager Craig Counsell for his trust. Jordan Wicks, recalled after a rough stretch, delivered in a high-leverage extra-innings win. With key arms sidelined for months, the Cubs are scrambling to find stability — and these recent additions might just be the spark they need.
