The Cubs are following through on adding experience to their bench, which was one of two remaining offseason focuses, along with the bullpen, that president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer outlined at Cubs Convention last weekend.
They agreed to contract terms with veteran infielder Jon Berti, according to multiple reports Wednesday. The one-year deal is worth $2 million guaranteed with up to $1.3 million in incentives, MLB.com reported. It would be pending a physical.
Berti, who turned 35 on Wednesday, made the most out of 25 appearances with the Yankees last year.
