Jake Arrieta is currently an MLB free agent, but is it too soon to rule out his return to the Chicago Cubs? There is a sliver of a chance that Jake Arrieta re-signs with the Cubs.
Despite the recent reports about the interest other MLB teams have in the former Cy Young Award winner, Arrieta’s days with the Chicago Cubs are not over. At least until he signs elsewhere. For now, the odds on Arrieta leaving in free agency should be viewed as 50-50.
All of the prospects regarding Jake Arrieta’s return to the Chicago Cubs depends on how the MLB free agent market goes.
