It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs and Yu Darvish agreed to a contract. I mean, whatever will we write about now? All jokes aside, it’s been a long time coming for the Cubs and Darvish who have gone back and forth all winter. Now, with a full rotation ready to go, the team will look to fill some of the other holes that remain.
One of those spots will be that of the backup catcher position. While Victor Caratini seemed like a good bet, Chris Gimenez may have got the leg up in the competition with the signing of Darvish.
