Brad Boxberger tosses scoreless ninth inning on mound Thursday

Brad Boxberger tossed a scoreless ninth inning on the mound for the Cubs Thursday, walking one and recording a save in a 5-2 win over the Padres.

Fantasy Impact

Boxberger has been reliable out of the bullpen for the Cubs recently, holding opponents scoreless in five of his last six relief appearances for the club. The veteran right-hander will likely see plenty of opportunities to close out games for manager David Ross, carrying a 3.60 ERA and 1.20 WHIP with to go along with nine strikeouts and two saves in 11 relief appearances so far this season.

Brad Boxberger signs with Cubs

Brad Boxberger and the Cubs are in agreement on a one-year, $2.8 million contract.

Fantasy Impact

Boxberger had a very solid 2022 with the Brewers with a 2.95 ERA and 68 strikeouts in 64 innings. The Cubs' bullpen is wide open when it comes to save opportunities, so Boxberger could serve a similar role to David Robertson did in 2022, making him a potential option for saves late in drafts.
