After a few days of speculation, the Astros will indeed be trading Ryan Pressly to the Cubs, The Athletic’s Chandler Rome reports. Pressly has agreed to waive his no-trade clause to allow the deal. The Astros will also be sending the Cubs some money to cover some of Pressly’s $14MM salary for 2025, and Houston will receive at least one prospect back in return, according to Rome. The trade will become official after a review of the involved medicals, as per ESPN’s Jeff Passan.
