| The Cubs announced Monday that theyve designated right-hander for a signment. His spot on the 40-man roster will go to fellow right-hander , whose is now official. Arias, 23, was selected to Chicagos 40-man roster in the 2023-24 offseason in order to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. The infielder-turned-reliever spent the 2024 season in the upper minors, pitching to a combined 4.77 ERA in 60 innings between Double-A and Triple-A. Arias was more effective at the former than the latter, logging a 3.75 ERA in Double-A but a 5.35 mark in Triple-A. Command was an i sue for Arias at both levels, as has been the case since he moved to the mound. The hard-throwing Dave Henderson Jersey righty sits mid-90s with his sinker but has walked a dismal 16.5% of opponents in his profe sional career including 19.6% of his opponents in 36 1/3 Triple-A frames this past season. Even with that notable flaw, Arias still landed 11th on . Eric Longenhagen and Travis Ice profiled the righty, touting a potential plus-plus changeup, a bat-mi sing slider and the ability to work multiple innings in relief. Arias location struggles FanGraphs report notes that Arias hasnt even progre sed to 40-grade control yet are prominent enough that the Cubs are comfortable trading him or exposing him to waivers. While the Cubs may feel they dont have room for him on their 40-man, Arias is a 23-year-old with a sinker up to 98 mph, a pair of average or better secondaries, and two minor league option years remaining. He seems like hell draw interest from another club, be it via a small trade or simply via waivers. The Cubs have five days to trade Arias. After that, hell need to be placed on waivers (a 48-hour proce s). Francisco Perez Jersey Click here Click here Click here
