Taylor Rogers News: Traded again within NL Central

The Pirates traded Rogers to the Cubs for Ivan Brethowr on Thursday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Rogers' stay with the Pirates did not last long after he was traded from the Reds to Pittsburgh on Wednesday. As expected, the reliever was acquired by the Pirates to be flipped, which landed the Pirates an outfield prospect. Rogers should serve as a high-leverage relief option in Chicago.
