It came down to the wire at the trade deadline, but the Cubs got their right-handed bat in Nicholas Castellanos:
The Cubs traded AA starter Alex Lange (a 2017 first-round pick) and High-A starter Paul Richan (a 2018 second-round pick) to the Tigers to complete the deal at the last minute.
Castellanos has a .790 OPS and 106 wRC+ this season with a 1.026 OPS vs. lefties. More to come on Castellanos as the day progresses.
UPDATE – 4:11 PM
The Cubs have also reportedly traded relief pitcher Carl Edwards Jr. to the San Diego Padres.
The returning piece from San Diego has not been made public yet.
