Gausman Heads to Cubs in Trade | Toronto News

Kevin Gausman, a two-time All-Star pitcher, is headed to the Chicago Cubs in a blockbuster trade that sends two minor league prospects to the Toronto Blue Jays. This move bolsters the Cubs’ rotation as they chase a postseason spot, while the Jays, in a rebuilding phase, cash in on a fading contender. Gausman’s 5-10 record and 4.38 ERA with Toronto haven’t reflected his usual dominance — but his 22nd in MLB in strikeouts proves he still has gas. Now, with Chicago’s potent offense and a depleted rotation, Gausman steps into a critical role — and gets his first taste of the new squad by facing his old team, the Jays, on Thursday.
