On ,December 11 2018 — During the annual winter meetings in Las Vegas, NV, the Phillies announce the signing of free agent OF Andrew McCutchen for three years and $50 million, while the Pirates trade P Ivan Nova to the White Sox in return for a minor leaguer and $500,000 in international bonus pool money. For their part, the Blue Jays decide to take a financial hit and dump the remainder of SS Troy Tulowitzki’s contract, worth $38 million, estimating that there is little chance that he will ever again be a productive player after missing all of 2018 with injuries and putting up a very sub-par season the year before.
