6 years agoThe Chicago Cubs are reportedly showing interest in New York Mets closer Jeurys Familia. It was reported earlier in the day that the A's were in on Familia and it now looks like Chicago has joined the hunt. The Cubs have been linked to Zach Britton and Brad Hand prior to his trade. It's unknown if the Cubs would keep currently Brandon Morrow at closer if they were to acquire Familia, making Familia's trade value questionable. The current Mets' closer has pitched to a 2.88 ERA and a 43/14 K/BB ratio with 17 saves.--Dan Fappiano
