Vogelbach traded to Seattle. The Cubs got Mike Montgomery who has been a very good lefty out of the pen this year. They also got AAA pitcher Jordan Pries who should be a bullpen arm in the near future, probably next year. It should be the end of Clayton Richard, but I hope this isn't the only bullpen arm they are going to add.
I guess this is Seattle giving up on this year. Their bullpen was average even with Montgomery. Vogelbach gives them a solid 1B/DH going forward. Montgomery is under team control through the 2021 season, is 27 years old and in his 2nd season in the majors and 1st as a bullpen arm after failing as a starter.
