The Chicago Cubs have signed 23-year old righty swinging outfielder Johermyn Chavez to a minor league deal. Chavez played in 81 games in Rookie+AA-ball for the Mariners last year and he was 64 of 265 (.242 avg, .768 OPS) with 45 runs scored, 10 homers, 34 RBIs and 2 stolen bases. He has now played in 678 games in his first seven years in the minors and he is 638 of 2,429 (.263 avg, .783 OPS) with 376 runs scored, 89 homers, 347 RBIs and 41 stolen bases. Maybe a change of scenery will get Chavez going back in the right direction.
