Hunter Harvey Signs Deal with Cubs
The Chicago Cubs have signed free-agent relief pitcher Hunter Harvey to a one-year deal, according to Will Sammon. The Cubs bulk up their bullpen with this low-risk signing. Harvey was limited to 12 games last season due to multiple injuries. He allowed zero earned runs while striking out 11 batters across 10.2 innings of work with the Kansas City Royals in 2025. The 31-year-old does have a good track record with a few quality seasons with the Washington Nationals in 2022 and 2023. He has regressed since then, but is still worth the gamble given the low risk. The Cubs have done a good job at bringing in project arms and turning them into viable options. Harvey figures to be a late-inning option, but is unlikely to see many save situations with Daniel Palencia being the primary closer.
