The Chicago Cubs acquired left-hander Drew Pomeranz from the Seattle Mariners for cash considerations.
The Cubs said the 36-year-old reliever, who last pitched in the majors in 2021, will report to Triple-A Iowa.
Pomeranz signed a minor league deal with Seattle on March 27. He was 0-1 with a 4.66 ERA and two saves in nine appearances at Triple-A Tacoma.
Cubs skipper Craig Counsell was managing Milwaukee in 2019 when Pomeranz posted a 2.39 ERA in 25 games for the Brewers.
Pomeranz is 48-58 with a 3.91 ERA and nine saves in 289 games (140 starts) with the Colorado Rockies (2011-13), Oakland Athletics (2014-15), San Diego Padres (2016, 2020-21), Boston Red Sox (2016-18), San Francisco Giants (2019) and Brewers (2019).
An All-Star in 2016, Pomeranz missed the 2022 and 2023 seasons while recovering from multiple elbow surgeries.
