[Jesse Togers] As expected, the Cubs are calling up 2021 first round pick, lefty Jordan Wicks. Wicks, who turns 24 next week, was 7-0 with a 3.55 ERA split between Double and Triple-A this season. Has a good change to go along with a fastball/slider. Was No.51 (in Feb) on @kileymcd top 100 list

Great write up here. Man if he could just lock down the #4/#5 spot Iād be delighted. With Horton and Brown looking like potential #2-#3, and if only one succeeds we could have such a solid rotation with Steele. Then we are one ace away from a really deep rotation.
Add in Ferris and Wiggins as some other high potential starting arms.
We are so back
