Boyd Returns as Cubs Pitching Gets a Boost

Matthew Boyd is primed to return to the Cubs rotation, looking sharp in a rehab start with four scoreless innings and seven strikeouts — exactly the stability the struggling pitching staff needs as the All-Star break looms. With key arms like Taillon gone and Assad shuffled, Boyd’s return adds depth and order, easing pressure on the front office and offering a much-needed spark to a rotation in disarray. While the Cubs still trail in the division, Boyd’s comeback could be the catalyst to rebuild consistency and momentum down the stretch.
