Detroit Tigers reportedly trade OF Cameron Maybin to Cubs for prospect Zack Short
DETROIT The Detroit Tigers reportedly traded outfielder Cameron Maybin to the Chicago Cubs for infield prospect Zack Short just minutes before Mondays MLB trade deadline. The 25-year-old is a 45-grade overall prospect with above-average fielding, running and arm strength grades. He isnt considered a great contact or power hitter, but his 261 walks in 371 career games suggests hes got promising plate discipline. Short finished the 2019 season with the Triple-A Iowa Cubs, so hes just one step away from the MLB level. Overall, it seems like a solid return for the Tigers, considering Maybin will be a free agent in a month.
