Cubs' Williams Perez: Signs with Cubs

Perez has signed a minor league deal with the Cubs, FOX's Ken Rosenthal reports.

Perez was released on Dec. 8 by the Braves in advance of the Rule 5 Draft. He made 11 starts for Atlanta last year, compiling a 6.04 ERA. In 2015, he started 20 games and posted a 4.78 ERA. The Cubs rotation is pretty well set at this point, so Perez figures to offer organizational depth.
