Two pitchers who previously played for the Cleveland Guardians have officially become free agents following their time with the Chicago Cubs. The move opens the door for both players to sign with any team for the upcoming season.
The development comes as Major League Baseball's free agency period progresses. While the specific pitchers were not named in initial reports, both had been part of the Cubs' roster after earlier tenures with the Guardians organization.
Chicago's pitching staff underwent changes throughout the 2026 season, with Matthew Boyd among the hurlers who saw action at Wrigley Field. The Cubs faced the Milwaukee Brewers on September 1, 2026, in one of their late-season matchups.
