Cubs / Marlins trade

[Chicago Cubs]

Marlins get:
Sean Doolittle RP WAS - $6.5/1yr

Cubs get:
D’Shawn Knowles CF LAA - prospect

Doolittle was good for me last season but I’ve got a pretty deep pen anchored by Yates, Diaz, Bummer and Greene already; so figured this was an opportunity to add a solid prospect with upside to my farm. Thanks for the deal.

Thanks Cubs. We weren't actively shopping for an RP but couldn't pass up the opportunity to add Doolittle. He still figures to play a key role in the backend of the Nats pen and we'll gladly take those points when he hits the mound.

Go Marlins!
