The Los Angeles Dodgers traded Casey Sadler to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for Minor League infielder Clayton Daniel. The deal comes one day after Sadler was designated for assignment in order to clear room for Alex Wood on the Dodgers’ 40-man roster.
The Cubs selected Daniel out of Jacksonville State University in the 31st round of the 2018 MLB Draft. He spent last season with Low-A South Bend and Double-A Tennessee, hitting a combined .305/.397/.402 with 11 doubles, three triples, two home runs and 21 RBI over 67 games.
During that time the 24-year-old primarily played second base, where he logged 323 innings between the two levels.
