Will Lilly's Surgery Affect the Cubs' Off-Season?

Found November 05, 2009 on Chicago Cubs Online:
PLAYERS: John Grabow,  Rich Harden,  Kevin Gregg,  Reed Johnson,  Chad Fox,  Ted Lilly
TEAMS: Chicago Cubs,  New York Yankees

Congratulations to the New York Yankees on their 27th World Series Championship. The 2009 season ended exactly one month after the Cubs campaign came to an end ... Warm up the oven, it's time for the Hot Stove Season. The 15-day free-agent filing period begins on Thursday ... teams have exclusive negotiating rights for the next 15 days in order to try and re-sign their would-be free agents. The Cubs are expected to re-sign John Grabow to a contract at some point over the next two weeks and a day ... but Rich Harden, Kevin Gregg, Reed Johnson and Chad Fox are expected to reach the open market. Johnson might return while Harden, Gregg and Fox will likely have another team in 2010 ... and beyond. Will the surgery on Ted Lilly's shoulder change Jim Hendry's approach this winter? Will the Cubs offer arbitration to Rich Harden and/or try to re-sign him? Or will they begin the season with a rotation full of question marks?

Lilly’s Surgery

Ted Lilly underwent successful surgery on his left shoulder yesterday.  He won’t begin throwing until early March, which means he won’t be ready to go when the season begins.  The Cubs are hopeful he’ll be ready to pitch sometime in April, but considering it was surgery on the shoulder I think that’s wishful thinking.  Setbacks are common after surgery and Lilly isn...

2009 Recap: Rich Harden

Via Goat Riders of the Apocalypse  |  November 06, 2009
I told you all about how Ryan Dempster let the Cubs in strikeouts. As it turns out, he almost didn't. Rich Harden pitched 59 fewer innings, started five fewer games -- and at the end of the season, only trailed Demp by one in the strikeout category. Of his 26 starts, Harden racked up eight or more strikeouts in 12 of them. As you may or may not know, 12 is really close to half...
