The Chicago Cubs could be an ideal landing spot for this Oakland Athletics closer.
The Chicago bullpen ranks 25th in the league for ERA with 4.53. They give up a lot of home runs and walk a lot of batters, that's simply not a recipe for success.reliever T.J. McFarland has bounced back from a couple of very poor seasons and looks to be his vintage self once again.
The southpaw works with an uniquely slow pitch mix that has performed in his favor. None of his pitches reach the 90s. He throws a sinker, slider and changeup combo. The crazy movement gets a lot of hitters to chase, which leads to poor contact. He doesn't work well as a big strikeout guy, but is one of the best at forcing weak contact ground balls.
