Summary
Chicago Cubs snag a low-risk bullpen gamble with Cuban pitcher Yosver Zulueta, acquired from Seattle for cash after being DFA’d just weeks ago. At 28, Zulueta hasn’t pitched in MLB this year but posted a 5.75 ERA in Triple-A, and flashed promise in spring training with a 3.86 ERA and 99 mph fastball. With key relievers sidelined—including Shelby Miller and Porter Hodge on the shelf after Tommy John—Zulueta could be the diamond-in-the-rough the Cubs desperately need to fill their bullpen void.
