Cubs get: Daniel Norris SP DET - 1.02/2.04/ARB/ARB/ARB/UFA
Angels get: Blake Swihart C BOS - $1.02 TC3 - farm Hunter Harvey SP BAL - $0.2 prospect Ranger Suarez SP PHI - $0.4 prospect McKenzie Mills SP PHI - $0.4 prospect Blake Perkins LF/CF/RF WAS - $0.4 prospect
I like that fact that Norris has the potential to help my team down the stretch once he gets healthy this season while still being controllable for 4 more years. Even if he doesn't help this year, I should have a solid piece to slot into my rotation for next season. The rebuilding Tigers should give him every opportunity to exceed and reach his potential. I gave up some prospects I really like here but they are mostly longer-term guys and most of my moves are geared towards competing for the division title next season. Best of luck to the Angels. They've got a hell of a deep farm system shaping up here.

I like norris and he was part of my plans for next season as well. However this was a deal I felt like I wanted to take advantage of. I know it's a risk, but I'm trying to load up and hope that some guys hit. Hoping that Swihart will get some run at C next year or possibly get some time in OF and be a big leaguer next year. Hoping that all the belief in his bat wasn't just because he was a C lol.
