When the Blue Jays traded reliever Nate Pearson to the Cubs on July 27 and he was saying his farewells to his teammates, they responded with, ‘‘See you in [three] weeks.’’

Though his tenure with the Blue Jays didn’t go as he envisioned, Pearson is still grateful for that time when he looks back on it.

On Saturday at Wrigley Field, Pearson — whom the Blue Jays selected 28th overall in the 2017 MLB Draft — said the trade is still fresh for him.
