The Cubs have reportedly signed right-handed relief pitcher Alex Wilson to a minor league deal according to Robert Murray of The Athletic.
Ugh…OK.
The 32-year-old pitched in 13 games for the Brewers this year and wasn’t any good, allowing 12 runs in 11.1 innings.
Hey, at least we got this incredible exchange on Twitter.
Wilson has a career 3.44 ERA in 332 innings all coming as a reliever. None of his numbers are really that impressive, with a 16.5 K%, 6.6 BB% and 44.7 ground ball %.
The righty had a couple good seasons with the Tigers and the Cubs can keep him around in 2020 if they want to through arbitration.
Yay for pitching depth.
