HEILMAN TO CHICAGO
The Chicago Cubs acquired pitcher Aaron Heilman from the Seattle Mariners for pitcher Garrett Olson and infielder Ronny Cedeno.
What does it give the Chicago Cubs
Heilman may finally get his wish to start again in Chicago, though that is not a guarantee. Either way, he adds more pitching depth for the Cubs. Still, if Heilman winds up back in the bullpen, he won't be a happy camper.
What does it give the Seattle Mariners
Olson has a good shot at winning a spot in Seattle's less-than-stellar rotation. Cedeno will likely replace Willie Bloomquist as the club's utility man. Therefore, this is a good deal for Seattle.
