"Cubs Make Major Prospect Trade with Dodgers, Acquire Michael Busch and Yency Almonte"

The Cubs acquired reliever Yency Almonte and top infielder Michael Busch from the Dodgers in exchange for lefthanded pitching prospect Jackson Ferris and outfield prospect Zyhir Hope. Busch, the Dodgers’ No. 1 prospect, is a potent offensive threat with elite strike-zone discipline and a balanced, powerful lefthanded swing, while Almonte is a hard-throwing righthander with inconsistency due to control issues. The trade provides the Cubs with a long-term option at first base and an established arm in the bullpen, while the Dodgers receive promising prospects in return.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have struggled in June, winning just 5 of 15 games.

Vesia has an ERA of 8.00, Outman has a .177/.278/.266 triple slash line, and Almonte's ERA has skyrocketed from 1.02 in 2022 to 6.30 in 2023. The Dodgers are currently 4 games behind the Arizona Diamondbacks for first place in the NL West.
