The Orioles bolstered their rotation by picking up Scott Feldman from the Cubs:

The deal sent pitchers Pedro Strop and Jake Arrieta to the Cubs in exchange for Feldman and catcher Steve Clevenger. Chicago also received Baltimore’s international signing bonus slots Nos. 3 and 4, which will help the struggling franchise pick up foreign talent.

Feldman won’t be a savior, but he will be a solid third starter, which is something the Orioles need now.

The Cubs lost an international signing slot when they traded Carlos Marmol to the Dodgers, so they gets that back here.
