The Chicago Cubs have been waiting for Ben Brown to return from his neck injury, but his season is over, according to Cubs insider Taylor McGregor.
Brown was trying to come back and provide some much-needed help for the Cubs pitching staff. He originally went on the injured list in June. However, after a bridge camp game in late August, he once again started experiencing symptoms of his neck injury.
That setback ultimately sealed his fate. Without Brown coming back, the Cubs will have to rely on the arms they have and potentially some other returning arms. Shelby Miller, Edward Cabrera, Javier ******* ad and Justin Steele could still come and save the Cubs' pitching staff.
The biggest issue for the Cubs has been the bullpen. The Cubs bullpen has a 4.02 ERA on the season, and in the second half, the bullpen has allowed 1.22 home runs per nine innings, ranked eighth-worst in baseball.
