CHICAGO TRADES FOR CHAFIN Monday, August 31, 2020
The Chicago Cubs acquired pitcher Andrew Chafin and cash considerations from the Arizona Diamondbacks for a player to be named later (Ronny Simon - 11/05/2020).
What does it give the Chicago Cubs?
Chafin is currently injured but the 30-year-old left-hander might be able to serve a situational role out of the Cubs bullpen down the stretch.
What does it give the Arizona Diamondbacks?
Since the Diamondbacks are not contending this year, it makes sense to dump as many veteran assets for futures as possible.
Fantasy Impact
There is no fantasy impact here, as Chafin is not expected to be used in either a setup or closing role with the Cubs. For now, he needs to get healthy.
