Cubs Acquire Two-Time All-Star Kevin Gausman from Blue Jays

The Chicago Cubs have acquired veteran starting pitcher Kevin Gausman from the Toronto Blue Jays in a trade deadline deal. Gausman, a two-time All-Star who finished third in Cy Young voting three years ago, joins a rotation featuring Shota Imanaga, Matthew Boyd, and David Peterson. Toronto received minor leaguers Brett Bateman and Ty Southisene in the exchange. The move signals a selloff for the struggling Blue Jays while providing Chicago with a top-tier rotation arm.
