A true strikeout left-hander, Brothers has battled injury and inconsistency with the Rockies. He should get a fresh start with the Cubs and might become an integral part of their bullpen.

Cabrera is a teenager, so he has several years of development ahead of him. Still, the Rockies did very well to land a promising prospect at age 18 in exchange for a player they had designated for assignment.

Brothers has a lot of dark-horse appeal if he can rediscover past form and become far more consistent. His fantasy stock is on the rise as a Cub, while Cabrera is several years away from being on the radar.
