Cubs acquire RHP Alec Mills from the Royals for OF Donnie Dewees … Designate LHP David Rollins for assignment
The Cubs made another deal Wednesday to add pitching depth to the system. The Cubs acquired RHP Alec Mills from the Kansas City Royals for minor league outfielder Donnie Dewees. To make room on the 40-man roster for Mills, left-handed reliever David Rollins was designated for assignment.
With Wednesday’s roster moves, the Cubs 40-man roster officially stands at 40 players less than a week before pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training.
