The Chicago Cubs continue to lag behind the Milwaukee Brewers in the NL Central, even as Brew Crew finally gets a reprieve from its brutal 19-games-in-18-days stretch.
Still, that hasn't prevented the Cubs from trying to make up the ground however they can, as they made a few notable roster moves prior to the start of September, including signing veteran first baseman Carlos Santana and demoting white-hot top prospect Owen Caissie for... reasons.
However, the most eye-catching addition they made was Aaron Civale, whom they claimed off waivers from the crosstown Chicago White Sox.
