The Blue Jays acquired Rivera and outfielder Yohendrick Pinango from the Cubs on Saturday in exchange for right-hander Nate Pearson, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Rivera has spent all season with Double-A Tennessee, slashing .169/.277/.260 with four homers and 16 RBI across 253 plate appearances. Despite his struggles, the 23-year-old infielder will most likely remain in Double-A with his new organization. He would need to experience a drastic turnaround at the plate before a promotion to Triple-A Buffalo becomes an option.
