Jacob Webb, Cubs Agree on One-Year Deal
The Chicago Cubs have agreed to a one-year deal with free-agent right-hander Jacob Webb that includes a club option for the 2027 season, according to Patrick Mooney of The Athletic. Per Will Sammon, Webb will earn $1.5 million in 2026, with a $2.5 million club option for 2027. Incentives could increase those totals to $2 million in 2026 and $3 million in 2027. The 32-year-old reliever comes off a season with the Texas Rangers where he posted a 3.00 ERA (3.09 xERA), a 14.6% K-BB rate, and a 1.03 WHIP across 66 innings. Overall, Webb's arsenal generates more weak contact than strikeouts. With the Cubs, he is expected to serve as a middle reliever and currently has no fantasy relevance for 2026.
