Lands with Northsiders as NRI The Cubs signed Keller to a minor-league contract Wednesday that includes an invitation to spring training, Jacob Zanolla of Cubs Insider reports.
Impact Keller made 16 appearances (two starts) between the White Sox and Red Sox in 2024, finishing with a 5.44 ERA and 32:15 K:BB over 41.1 innings. The 29-year-old is likely to begin the 2025 campaign as rotation depth at Triple-A Iowa.

Impact Pressly went on to compliment incumbent closer Porter Hodge and added that he planned to go into spring training competing for the ninth-inning gig. While Hodge fared well as the Cubs' closer down the stretch of the 2024 season, Pressly should enter 2025 as the clear favorite for the role. The 36-year-old has regressed over the last two seasons but still been plenty effective, holding a 3.54 ERA and 132:34 K:BB over 122 regular-season frames.

Bumped from 40-man roster The Cubs designated Vazquez for assignment Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Impact The Cubs had to clear a space on their 40-man roster after signing Jon Berti to a one-year deal. Vazquez has had a decent Triple-A career with an OPS of .794, but he did not impress with his brief first stint at the major league level. He managed just one hit across 14 plate appearances with the big club.

Traded to Cubs after waiving NTC Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reported Sunday that Pressly is waiving his no-trade clause and will be traded from the Astros to the Cubs.
Impact The Astros will also be sending money to help cover some of Pressly's $14 million salary, and the Astros are expected to get at least one prospect in return, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic. The trade is pending Pressly passing his physical, but the expectation is that the 36-year-old right-hander will be the Cubs' closer for the 2025 campaign. Bob Nightengale of USA Today relays that the move also opens the door for the Astros to bring Alex Bregman back. Pressly appeared in 59 regular-season games for Houston in 2024, registering 25 saves with a 3.49 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 58:18 K:BB across 56.2 innings.
