MLB star Dansby Swanson has hinted that Mallory Swanson would have changed NWSL teams had he not signed with Chicago Cubs. The famous baseball player signed a a contract with Chicago Cubs, a move that he says eventually saw Swanson (formerly Mallory Pugh) stay at club closest to him.
“This is technically her last season in Chicago,’’ Dansby Swanson told USA Today. “But the [NWSL] pretty much made a promise that they would do right by her. Say I had signed with the Dodgers, they would have traded her to a team that’s in Los Angeles. They were very open to that. And since I’m in Chicago now, I think they’re going to be OK keeping her around.’’
With her future and that of her husband sorted, Mallory Swanson is now preparing for the new NWSL season.
