McKinstry will provide some versatile defensive depth with his ability to play multiple positions in the infield and outfield.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After the Martin deal, the Cubs next MLB trade deadline move came late in the weekend when <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/chicago\/cubs\/mlb-trade-deadline-cubs-send-shortstop-dixon-machado-giants\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the team sent minor-leaguer Dixon Machado to the Giants<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for righty pitcher, Raynel Espinal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the weekend concluded, the Chicago Cubs made three more trades involving pitchers again. The first came on Monday in <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/mlb\/story\/_\/id\/34328364\/new-york-yankees-trading-chicago-cubs-rookie-reliever-scott-effross\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a trade with the Yankees <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">where the Cubs moved Scott Effross for Hayden Wesneski. Not many pictured Effross being a moveable piece for the Cubs at the trade deadline. With that said, they clearly saw something in Wesneski to let their homegrown reliever go.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Good luck to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DRob30?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DRob30<\/a> in Philly!<\/p>\n<p>It was a pleasure watching you pitch in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Cubs?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Cubs<\/a> uniform! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/e3w3E2gltS\">pic.twitter.com\/e3w3E2gltS<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Chicago Cubs (@Cubs) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Cubs\/status\/1554569146754646018?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 2, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleachernation.com\/cubs\/2022\/08\/02\/cubs-trade-closer-david-robertson-to-the-phillies-for-pitching-prospect-ben-brown\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">their next trade<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which occurred on deadline day, the team sent another pitcher in David Robertson to the Phillies for Ben Brown, a Double-A starting right-hander. Brown has plenty of potential and is definitely a prospect to keep your eye on as he works his way up to the Show. The last trade the Cubs made on deadline day went down with less than 10 minutes to spare. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bleedcubbieblue.com\/2022\/8\/2\/23289558\/cubs-trade-mychal-givens-mets\">In the trade with the Mets<\/a>, the team sent reliever Mychal Givens off to New York for Saul Gonzalez, another young right-handed prospect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most notable trade for the Cubs this year were the ones they didn\u2019t end up making. Before the MLB trade deadline, it was heavily reported and speculated that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlbtraderumors.com\/2022\/08\/cubs-arent-trading-willson-contreras-ian-happ.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the team was going to move Wilson Contreras and Ian Happ<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as part of their rebuild. But by the time the clock struck 5 on Tuesday, neither player was announced in a trade. It\u2019s fair to say that many insiders, analysts, and fans (us included) didn&#8217;t expect the lack of moves with these two guys.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sbi-embed-wrap\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media sbi-embed\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CgvDdnWMPDX\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
