A Houston Astros pitcher is reportedly drawing trade interest this offseason. Per the New York Post's Jon Heyman, the Chicago Cubs "and many other teams"

Bolstering their team in free agency, the Cubs are nearing finalizing a trade for Astros pitcher Ryan Pressly.

Pressly, who served as Houston's primary closer from 2020-23, will make $14 million in 2025 and has a full no-trade clause.

The Chicago Cubs are among several teams interested in trading for Houston Astros reliever Ryan Pressly, a source told Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston.However, Pressly hasn't waived his no-trade clause,

4:46pm: Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports that Pressly has not agreed to waive his no-trade clause to this point. According to Rome, while the Astros are shopping Pressly, a deal is not considered imminent. The veteran righty would obviously need to approve a trade for anything to get across the finish line.

If Bregman is back in Houston, team sources indicated he would play third base in place of Isaac Paredes, whom the Astros acquired as part of the three-player package for Tucker. In that scenario, both Paredes and Altuve could face a position change.

The Astros have discussed a deal that would send reliever Ryan Pressly to the Cubs, but a source told MLB.com that Pressly has yet to waive his no-trade clause despite a report that a trade was “on the verge” of being completed Thursday night.
