The Cubs acquired four new players by trade before Thursday’s deadline: Willi Castro, Taylor Rogers, Andrew Kittredge and Michael Soroka.
This is a bit confusing and I’ll try to make clear all the roster moves, both 40-man and 26-man, here.
Kittredge and Soroka were added to the 40-man early Thursday with no corresponding moves needed, as there were two open spots at the time.
Castro and Rogers were added to the 40-man late Thursday and the corresponding moves were Ryan Pressly being designated for assignment and Miguel Amaya being moved to the 60-day injured list.
