Cubs updates… • Ben Brown gets 5th starter job • Brad Keller will get last bullpen job (40-man move not required until Thursday) • No decision yet on Vidal Bruján vs. Gage Workman, but Bruján being evaluated after hitting wall hard in Saturday’s game. Potential for IL.

Why Ryan Pressly Waived His No-Trade Clause to Join the Cubs

It wasn't an easy decision for Ryan Pressly to approve a trade to go from the Astros to the Cubs. This is why he did.

Ryan Herrera @ryan-herrera.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

Ryan Pressly on waiving his no-trade clause: "Having a lot of long, hard conversations with family and friends. It was tough to make this decision. Probably one of the hardest decisions I've ever made. But playing in Chicago has kind of always been a dream of mine."

Ryan Pressly on his former Astros teammate and new Cubs teammate Kyle Tucker: "Just an A-plus human being. Not the best fantasy football owner, I know that. But he's just a great guy to have in the clubhouse. He's gonna end up being a really, really good player for a long time.” (1/2)

Matt Shaw on the Cubs' 3B opportunity: "The big leagues is the big leagues. No matter how much the opportunity might present itself, it's still going to be, you gotta earn that spot. Hopefully, given the opportunity, I'll be able to show what I got and be able to earn that position."
