The Chicago Cubs have acquired right-handed pitcher Nate Pearson from the Toronto Blue Jays in a trade, according to sources.
The Blue Jays will receive outfielder Yohendrick Pinango and infielder Josh Rivera in the deal.
Pearson, a former top prospect, has struggled with injuries but has shown flashes of brilliance.
The Cubs are hoping that Pearson can regain his form and be a valuable addition to their pitching staff.
