Cubs show they're still thirsty for former Mariners RPs as reclamation projects
Boston Red Sox v Seattle Mariners | Alika Jenner/GettyImagesThere could be a miniature reunion of former Seattle Mariners relievers on the North Side of Chicago this year. Having already signed Collin Snider in December, the Cubs added yet another former Mariner on Monday when they agreed to terms with Trent Thornton.
The news was revealed by Tread Athletics, a North Carolina training center where Thornton (who was non-tendered by Seattle in November) has been working out. Terms of the contract are not yet public, though it is presumably a minor league deal with an invite to spring training.
