3 years agoThe Chicago Cubs are agreeing to an undisclosed deal with free-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman on Thursday, according to a source. The Cubs have been busy on Thursday, also adding veteran infielder Jonathan Villar and left-handed pitcher Daniel Norris to major league deals. Gsellman spent his first six MLB seasons with the New York Mets, posting a 4.59 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 14 saves in 176 appearances (34 starts) covering 350 2/3 innings. He had a 3.77 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 17 strikeouts and seven walks in 28 2/3 innings (one start) while being limited with a lat injury. The 28-year-old is likely to serve in a middle-relief role if he's on the Cubs major league roster, making it highly unlikely he'll be fantasy relevant.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
