Cubs' Trevor Richards: Gets MiLB deal from CHCJanuary 20, 2025 | 02:14 PM

The Cubs signed Richards to a minor-league contract Monday, Aram Leighton of Just Baseball reports. Richards had a 4.55 ERA in 2024 between the Blue Jays and Twins and saw his strikeout rate dip from 33.3 percent to 22.4 percent year-over-year. That said, as a versatile arm with some swing-and-miss ability, he's a solid get on a minor-league contract. Presumably, he'll receive an invitation to spring training, where he'll compete for a bullpen gig.
