A Chicago Cubs minor league player is in big trouble...

The police say 25-year-old Jesus Camargo-Corrales was reportedly arrested this past week near Vail, Colorado after they saw his car speeding and changing lanes erratically. 

After getting pulled over, Camargo and his two passengers said they were driving to Denver from Phoenix, and gave conflicting stories about their destination.

The cops eventually brought in a K-9 unit and it sniffed out something in the trunk.

Once they popped the trunk, the cops say they discovered a Chicago Cubs duffel bag that contained 21 pounds of methamphetamine and 1.2 pounds of oxycodone pills, and other paraphernalia.

Camargo said someone in Sinaloa, Mexico asked him to deliver the bag to Denver, for which he was paid only $500.
