No, not that Chris Carpenter.
This Chris Carpenter.
In exchange for nabbing Theo Epstein, the Cubs are sending over a26-year-old righthanded relief pitcher. Last year was his first year in the majors; he appeared in 10 games and did 9-2/3 innings of work. During those innings, he struck out 8 batters, walked 7 batters, and gave up 3 earned runs.
I'm glad to see us get another young arm in the pen, even if those walks are a little worrisome.
The deal also calls for the Cubs to give Boston a player to be named later, and for Boston to give the Cubs a player to be named later.

I was reading about this earlier today, and apparently the PTBNL are involved just so that the exchange will fit in with what baseball labels a "baseball transaction." Like the fact that we got a pitcher with some promise, but i'm not holding my breath that this is anything but a depth player.
