When you can't get Mike Trout, sign one of his backups. The Cubs did that today, adding outfielder Michael Hermosillo on a minor-league deal. Looking at getting Hermosillo on a no-risk (at all) deal on the day non-tenders are announced is another look at the "spend as little as possible" kick that some MLB teams seem to be on these days.
Hermosillo was a 28th Round pick in 2013 by the Angels from Ottawa High School in Ottawa, Illinois. He's appeared in MLB games the last three seasons with limited success (.188/.288/.287, 19-for-101, one home run).
