Cubs Acquire Civale Ahead of Series Win | Oakland Athletics News

The Cubs just pulled off a savvy move, snagging veteran pitcher Aaron Civale from the A’s in a last-minute trade before their dominant 10-1 win over the Twins — clinching the series 2-1. Civale, known for his elite command and six-pitch arsenal, brings proven durability and postseason upside, even if his recent stats look shaky — partly due to tough parks. In return, the Cubs shipped out Aiden Moffett. With a 56-43 record and second place in the NL Central, this trade signals serious playoff ambitions. Fans are hopeful Civale can rebound, and with the Tigers looming, the Cubs’ pitching depth just got a major upgrade.
