The Cubs added to their outfield depth by claiming an old rival in Phillip Ervin.

The Chicago Cubs have yet to make any major moves this offseason, but they have succeeded in adding significant depth to the roster. Their acquisition of Matt Duffy added a veteran infield option while Jonathan Holder could bolster their bullpen if they get him back into form. Add former Mariner and Cincinnati Red Phillip Ervin to the list of bats clamoring to earn a spot on the 25-man roster.
