Hamels' trade to the Cubs has been agreed upon and is a done deal pending medicals, Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports reports.
The Cubs emerged as the leading candidate for Hamels' services this week and moved quickly to get a deal done. Per Passan, the Rangers will eat a large portion of Hamels' remaining salary and receive a haul of minor league prospects, whose names have yet to be disclosed. The deal will be made official once the medicals go through.
