Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Cubs fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
Cubs fans received some bad news today about Cade Horton; if you haven’t seen it yet, you can read about it here
.Between Horton’s injury and Matthew Boyd missing some time (at least that injury doesn’t sound serious), the Cubs will be employing their sixth and seventh starters this week
against the Rays, Javier Assad tonight and Colin Rea tomorrow.
Those guys are both competent starters, but obviously not at the level of Horton or Boyd. Still, the Cubs survived losing Justin Steele for most of last year — and he should be back by late May or early June.
In any case, we certainly hope the Cubs don’t lose any more starters to injury. But if they do, who should they call on as another replacement? Some of the guys listed in the survey below are already in the Cubs organization, some aren’t.
Vote in the survey and I’ll have the responses here later this week.
