The Cubs have begun to fill out their bullpen. And right-hander Brad Boxberger’s signing follows a pattern the Cubs are expected to embrace again this offseason.
Boxberger and the Cubs have agreed to a one-year, $2.8 million contract, a source confirmed Thursday. Boxberger, 34, posted a 2.95 ERA with the Brewers last season.
Boxberger has closing experience, and with the Rays in 2015 led the American League in saves (41). But he battled injuries the next couple years, limiting him to 57 appearances in the 2016 and 2017 seasons combined.
