The Cubs have traded for Isaac Paredes from the Rays, sending Christopher Morel, Hunter Bigge, and Ty Johnson to Tampa Bay. Paredes, an All-Star and productive player, is expected to bolster the Cubs' lineup as they aim to compete in 2025. The trade reflects the Cubs' strategy to improve their infield while the Rays continue their trend of trading controllable players to manage payroll. Morel, who has struggled this season, may find new opportunities with the Rays, while Bigge and Johnson are prospects with potential.
