Lou Piniella told The Chicago Sun-Times that the Cubs were pursuing anymore starting pitching. "No," Piniella was quoted as saying in Tuesday's Sun-Times. "Starting we don't need. We're set. We've got six good starters, and they're all experienced. Getting Dempster back was the key. We're in good shape with our starting pitching. Bullpen-wise, [we're looking for] possibly one more experienced pitcher. We've got a lot of young kids out there."

So would it be a good move by the Cubs to not go after Jake Peavy and hold onto their current starters? Any thoughts?

Ok lets face it, the Cubs didn't really need Jake Peavy. He would've been a great luxury and could put them over the top, but they need him, they should focus on the things they need like a left-handed power-hitter or center fielder

That's true. They were one of the best teams in the legaue last year, and I'm not sure what happened to them in the play-offs, but I don't know if another good starter would help them too much. I saw you wrote left-handed power-hitter, that could be a good idea for them to go after, maybe more homeruns would help them do better next year.
