We are all starved for big baseball news. ANY big baseball news, but preferably big Cubs baseball news.
What I have to bring you this morning is Cubs baseball news of a small nature:
League source says Cubs have signed righty Ryan Weber to a minor league deal. Weber, 27, was a solid Braves prospect for a while (command/control/groundball swing guy), got a handful of starts for Braves and Mariners in 2015, 16, 17. Biceps injury derailed 2017.

Ryan Weber was the Braves’ 22nd-round pick in 2009, and as noted in the tweet, had some pretty good years in their system before making his major-league debut for Atlanta in 2015.
