Summary
- Reid Detmers traded to Chicago Cubs
- Angels receive three prospects in return
- Detmers threw a no-hitter in his 11th start
The Los Angeles Angels have traded left-handed pitcher Reid Detmers to the Chicago Cubs. This significant move occurred ahead of the MLB trade deadline on Monday. In exchange for Detmers, the Angels acquired three promising prospects. These include infielder Jefferson Rojas, right-handed pitcher Dominick Reid, and right-handed pitcher Mason McGwire.
Detmers, a former No. 10 overall pick in the 2020 MLB Draft, had a notable career with the Angels since his debut in 2021. His most remarkable achievement was throwing a no-hitter against the Rays in only his 11th major league start. This feat marked the 12th no-hitter in Angels franchise history. The pitcher's final appearance for the Angels was on July 28.
