Chicago Cubs Acquire Eli Morgan from Guardians

News summary

The Chicago Cubs are making significant roster changes as they prepare for the 2025 season. They recently traded for reliever Eli Morgan from the Cleveland Guardians, who posted an impressive 1.93 ERA in 2024, bolstering their struggling bullpen. To accommodate Morgan, the Cubs designated fan-favorite slugger Patrick Wisdom for assignment, marking the end of his tenure with the team after several inconsistent seasons. Wisdom's departure is expected to save the Cubs approximately $3 million in payroll. Additionally, reports suggest that Adbert Alzolay, recovering from Tommy John surgery, is also likely to be removed from the roster as the Cubs look to protect key prospects. These moves reflect the Cubs' urgent need to improve their pitching staff and overall team performance following a disappointing previous season.
