According to a report from Randy Reinhardt, the Cubs have added a right-handed reliever to the system. The Cubs purchased RHP Cole Brocker from the Normal CornBelters of the Frontier League.
Brocker spent a majority of his 2015 season with the CornBelters pitching in Independent ball. Brocker was 5-2 in 24 games, all in relief, with a 2.94 ERA and 0.95 WHIP. Brocker allowed 12 runs, 11 earned, on 25 hits with seven walks and 48 strikeouts in 33 2/3 innings.
Brocker was also in Atlanta’s system last year and appeared in 10 games over three levels.
