CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs have acquired Ryan Brasier in a trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers, adding the right-hander to their bullpen after he was cut by the World Series champions last week. The Cubs are sending a player to be named or cash to the Dodgers for Brasier, who went 1-0 with a 3.54 ERA in 29 games last year, including four starts. The Dodgers said they also sent cash to the Cubs as part of the deal. Brasier was designated for assignment when the Dodgers finalized their one-year contract with Kirby Yates on Thursday.
