The Chicago Cubs have sent outfielder Jorge Soler to the Kansas City Royals for their closer Wade Davis. Since moving exclusively to a relief role in 2014, Davis has gone 19-4 with 47 saves and a 1.18 ERA in 185 appearances, limiting opponents to a .163 batting average and allowing only three home runs in 182.2/3rd innings. He will replace Aroldis Chapman. Soler batted .238 with 12 home runs last season for the Cubs.
