Pressly has agreed to waive his no-trade clause, according to a person familiar with the situation, and there is an agreement in place between the teams, pending a review of medical records. The person spoke to the AP on Sunday on condition of anonymity because the trade had not been finalized.

Ryan Pressly waived his no-trade clause and approved a deal that will move the All-Star reliever from the Houston Astros to the Chicago Cubs, a source briefed on his decision told The Athletic on Sunday.

Pressly will waive his no-trade clause to facilitate the move, and Houston will send money to help cover his $14 million salary, the sources said.
