The Cubs announced that they have traded Brent Lillibridge to the Yankees for a player to be named later or cash considerations. The light-hitting infielder/outfielder has spent the bulk of the year with Chicago's Triple-A affiliate.
The 29-year-old saw just nine games of action on the Cubs' varsity squad this season versus 48 games in Triple-A Iowa where he hit .281/.331/.425 with five homers. Across six big league seasons, Lillibridge owns a .207/.271/.339 slash line with five different clubs.
