 Cubs deal Hill to O's, Wuertz to A's
The Cubs decided Rich Hill and Michael Wuertz both needed a change of scenery. On Monday, the Cubs continued their offseason reorganization plan and traded Hill to the Baltimore Orioles for a player to be named, while dealing Wuertz to the Oakland Athletics for two Minor League players.
Cubs general manager Jim Hendry said he knew he wanted to move Hill but took into consideration that he wanted to find a place where the lefty would succeed. Hill will be reunited with Rick Kranitz and Alan Dunn, who are both on the Orioles' coaching staff, and who both worked with Hill in the Cubs' Minor League system |
