The Chicago Cubs have pulled off a major coup in the offseason, completing a blockbuster trade with the Houston Astros to bring three-time All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker to Wrigley Field.
The Cubs, eager to bolster their lineup and make a push for the postseason, sent a package of four players to the Astros in exchange for Tucker, a versatile slugger who has been a consistent presence in Houston’s lineup for several years.
The trade is a significant move for both teams, with the Cubs adding a proven offensive threat and the Astros freeing up salary space to pursue other targets in free agency.
