For a while now there has been speculation as to when the Cubs would trade one of their catchers. Welington Castillo was always the catcher rumored to be traded and carrying three catchers just seemed like a bad idea.

Well, the Cubs have finally found a resolution as Castillo was traded to the Mariners on Tuesday morning.
