In Kevin Gausman, Cubs finally get their 'white whale' at trade deadline

The Cubs chased Kevin Gausman for years. On Monday, they finally got him, along with two more trades to bolster the rotation.

The Dodgers landed Tarik Skubal, but Adley Rutschman's surprising move to the Boston Red Sox and other MLB trade deadline deals reshaped the playoff race.

Kevin Gausman’s time with the Toronto Blue Jays has come to an end.

The veteran right-hander was traded by the Blue Jays to the Chicago Cubs on Sunday in return for outfielder Brett Bateman and infielder Ty Southisene.
