The Chicago Cubs have signed reliever Drew Pomeranz to a minor league deal. Pomeranz, who posted a 2.17 ERA in 2025 with the Angels, recently threw a scoreless inning for Triple-A Iowa, striking out two batters. This acquisition follows the veteran's release from Los Angeles, providing the Cubs with needed depth in their bullpen amid injury concerns. If he continues to perform well in the minors, there could be an opportunity for Pomeranz to return to the majors soon.
