The Chicago Cubs are bringing in another bullpen arm to their mix after pulling off this trade with the Toronto Blue Jays.
With them being out of the division race and 6.5 back from the final Wild Card spot entering Saturday, all signs point to them waiving the white flag and becoming sellers to get back more future assets.
It would be a disappointing result based on the expectations coming into the season, but the front office has to take advantage of this sellers' market.Pearson was a former first round pick of the Blue Jays back in 2017 and was called up for his Major League debut three years later. He hasn't lived up to the billing during his time in the MLB, posting a career ERA of 5.
Perhaps that suggests they aren't going to start selling off as many pieces as originally expected, or maybe Hoyer saw an opportunity to acquire someone with two more seasons of club control and took it while still planning on moving their best trade chips.Brad Wakai graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Journalism.
