		<description><![CDATA[The Cubs bullpen conversations will span far and wide for the Cubs this off-season, but one of the better fits they might find is former Cub Joe Smith. You might remember Smith from his brief stint with the Cubs in 2016. Now I&#8217;m not saying that Smith is the reason they won the World Series [&#8230;]]]></description>

This year’s starting pitching market offers a couple top-tier options like Yu Darvish and Arrieta, himself, as well as some high-upside, high-risk arms like Shohei Otani. But [&#8230;]]]></description>
