The Chicago Cubs and relief pitcher Brandon Workman have agreed to a one-year deal worth $1 million on Wednesday, with the chance to earn up to $2 million if he reaches performance-based incentives. The reliever is now 32 years of age and struggled mightily in 2020 with a 5.95 ERA in 19 2/3 innings with the Boston Red Sox and Philadelphia Phillies. Workman did have a strong 2019 campaign with the Red Sox, posting a 1.88 ERA with 16 saves, and he could be one of the top options for the Cubs to close games if Craig Kimbrel struggles. But for now, Workman will just be a speculative late-inning arm in deeper NL-only leagues.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller

The Texas Rangers signed right-handed free-agent pitcher Brandon Workman to a minor league deal on Friday. Workman pitched for both the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs last year, posting a 5.46 ERA, 2.04 WHIP, 25 strikeouts and 21 walks in 28 innings over 29 relief appearances. If the 33-year-old does win a spot in Texas' Opening Day bullpen, he'll be a low-leverage arm and won't be valuable in any fantasy leagues. Workman has a career 4.02 ERA and 1.39 WHIP with 343 strikeouts and 157 walks in 329 innings over 238 appearances (18 starts) in seven major league seasons with the Red Sox, Philadelphia Phillies and Cubs.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
