Cubs' Tony Cingrani: Signs minor-league contract

Cingrani signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Saturday.

Cingrani began the 2021 campaign with the Lexington Legends of the Atlantic League, but he'll report to Triple-A Iowa after he landed a minor-league deal. The southpaw made seven appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City in 2019 and recorded a 2.84 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in 6.1 innings. He hasn't appeared in the big leagues since 2018 but could join the Cubs' bullpen at some point in 2021.
