The Tampa Bay Rays have traded infielder Miles Mastrobuoni to the Chicago Cubs for minor league pitcher Alfredo Zarraga.
Mastrobuoni made his big league debut for the Rays in late September and played in eight games for the team over the final days of the regular season, compiling three hits over 17 trips to the plate.
Originally selected in the 16th round of the 2016 draft by Tampa Bay, Mastrobuoni worked his way through the system. At each stop along the way, Mastrobuoni showcased solid abilities and accumulated solid seasons without much fanfare eventually earning his way onto the Rays big league roster this past season.
