Cubs non-tendered RHP Jaye Chapman.
Chapman was acquired from the Braves in the mid-season deal for Paul Maholm. He posted a 3.75 ERA and 12/10 K/BB ratio in 12 innings for the Cubs in 2012. While he has battled control problems in the past, he could still develop into a solid middle reliever. Fri, Nov 30, 2012 09:16:00 PM

Jaye Chapman - R - Cubs

Cubs recalled RHP Jaye Chapman from Double-A Tennessee.

The Cubs acquired Chapman from the Braves in late July in a four-team trade that sent Paul Maholm to Atlanta. The right-hander won't hold any fantasy value this year.

Jaye Chapman - R - Cubs

Cubs acquired RHPs Jaye Chapman and Arodys Vizcaino from the Braves for LHP Paul Maholm, OF Reed Johnson and cash considerations.

Chapman, a 25-year-old reliever, is 3-6 with a 3.52 ERA at Triple-A Gwinnett this year and has a 3.95 ERA and 9.6 K/9 over parts of seven seasons in the minors. He could turn into a solid bullpen fixture at Wrigley eventually, but will function in this trade as a lower-probability lottery ticket next to the prize that is Arodys Vizcaino.

Jaye Chapman - R - Cubs

Braves optioned RHPs Jaye Chapman, J.J. Hoover and Todd Redmond, LHPs Sean Gilmartin and Luis Avilan and C Evan Gattis to Triple-A Gwinnett.

There are some intriguing arms among the bunch, but none of them had a real shot to crack the Opening Day roster. Chapman, Avilan and Hoover could all factor into the team's bullpen equation at some point this season, though.
