The latest news from a source (not official yet) is that the Cubs have signed infielder Alejandro Rivero to a minor league deal. Rivero is from Cuba and was playing in the Indy League.
Although Major League players cannot be signed until the World Series ends, Independent League players can be signed since their season is over.
Here is the exact tweet:
Source: Cuban INF Alejandro Rivero (24) signed with the Chicago Cubs as an undrafted free agent a few minutes ago. Rivero had 3 seasons in Baseball College with @StThomasUniv and destroyed the Pioneer League with @BoiseHawks in 2021 with .352, 20 HR, 70 RBI. He left Cuba in 2015.
