Passan notes that it would be extremely difficult to acquire a high -end arm like Gore, as well as to note that Cubs have the perspectives available to conclude an agreement.

“The perspective of cubs obtaining a starter like Gore from Washington or Joe Ryan of Minnesota twins is unlikely due to the exorbitant cost landing that these players would require and Chicago’s propensity to play things safely in the midst of budgetary constraints, “wrote Passan.

“In the Owen Caissie voltiseur, Chicago has the kind of prospect around which a package for a controllable arm can be built. If it is not Gore or Ryan, it may be Mitch Keller of Pittsburgh. Anyway, the motivation for the cubs is there, “he wrote.

Gore would certainly be a welcome addition to a rotation of Chicago which, outside of Shota Imanaga and Matthew Boyd, had a lot of trouble.

Gore’s 4-9 record does not tell the full story of his season, because it has only 3.59 MPM. He granted eight points in 2 1/3 rounds during his last departure against the Padres of San Diego, easily his worst performance of the season.
