Summary
The Cubs are eyeing a bold move before the MLB trade deadline, targeting LA Angels’ lefty Reid Detmers for their struggling rotation — with a potential swap involving rising catcher Owen Ayers. Detmers, just 27 and under team control through 2028, may need a fresh start despite a rough 2024 season, while Ayers is crushing it in Triple-A with elite power stats. If both teams agree, this could be the breakout deal of the deadline. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
