The Cubs signed right-hander Jeff Brigham to a minor league contract, MLB.com’s Jordan Bastian reports. Brigham’s deal includes an invitation to Chicago’s big league Spring Training camp.
Brigham (who turns 34 in February) is a veteran of six Major League seasons, with 120 2/3 innings pitched over 94 total games with the Marlins, Mets, and Diamondbacks. Three of Brigham’s six seasons included four or fewer appearances, including his work with Arizona in 2025 — the righty posted an 8.10 ERA over four games and 3 1/3 innings.
The D’Backs signed Brigham to a minors deal last winter, and he hasn’t pitched since being released by the team last August while on the minor league injured list.
