Earns first career save Civale earned the save in Wednesday's 10-3 win over the Mets, allowing one run on two hits and striking out three over three innings.
Impact Civale entered in the seventh with an eight-run cushion and cruised to the finish line, with his only blemish coming on a solo homer by Juan Soto in the eighth. It marked the right-hander's first career MLB save and capped off a strong regular-season stint with the Cubs. Since being acquired across Chicago, the 30-year-old has posted a 2.08 ERA and a flawless 14:0 K:BB through 13 innings, a notable turnaround from his earlier struggles with the White Sox.

Earns first Chicago win Civale (4-9) tossed three scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Wednesday's 8-4 victory over the Pirates. He allowed one hit and struck out three.
Impact With starter Matthew Boyd scuffling through three innings, Chicago turned to Civale in long relief, and the veteran earned his first win with his new team since getting claimed off waivers at the end of August. Civale has looked sharp with the Cubs, as he's allowed just one run across eight innings in three appearances, and he's struck out eight batters as well. The righty's fantasy value is capped in his current role, though it looks like he could be a positive addition to Chicago's bullpen down the stretch.

Three shutout frames in relief Civale allowed a hit and no walks while striking out four over three scoreless innings Monday against Atlanta.
Impact Civale impressed in his Cubs debut, tossing three scoreless innings to help set the stage for a comeback win. The right-hander was claimed off waivers from the White Sox on Sunday after logging a 5.26 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 89 innings (18 starts) between Chicago and Milwaukee. Though he's worked as a starter in his career, the Cubs plan to use him out of the bullpen down the stretch.

Bullpen role awaits The Cubs plan to use Civale out of the bullpen after claiming him off waivers from the White Sox on Sunday, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Civale was reluctant to pitch out of the bullpen for Milwaukee before he was traded to the White Sox on June 13, but he'll have to settle for a relief role as he moves on to his third team of the season. The veteran righty had a stretch of three straight scoreless outings coming out of the All-Star break, but he otherwise turned in an unremarkable 13-start run with the White Sox, logging a 5.37 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 55:26 K:BB in 67 innings. The Cubs will likely keep Civale stretched out in a long-relief role in the event that a spot in the rotation opens up in September, but for now, the team appears set to proceed with Colin Rea and Javier Assad as its back-end starters until Jameson Taillon (groin) and/or Michael Soroka (shoulder) return from the injured list.

Moves across town The Cubs claimed Civale off waivers from the White Sox on Sunday.
Impact The veteran right-hander will move on to his third stop of the season, after the White Sox previously acquired him from the Brewers in the June 13 deal that sent Andrew Vaughn to Milwaukee. He had been making regular turns out of the White Sox rotation since the trade, submitting; a 5.37 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 55:26 K:BB in 67 innings over his 13 starts with the club. Since the 30-year-old is on an expiring contract and wasn't part of the rebuilding White Sox's plans, he was exposed to waivers and scooped by the Cubs. Civale's exact role with his new organization isn't yet clear, as the Cubs have been getting decent results from Colin Rea and Javier Assad at the back end of the rotation of late and may not view Civale as an upgrade over either pitcher. If that's the case, Civale could initially be ticketed for a long-relief role with the Cubs.

Chased by Royals in fifth inning Civale (3-9) took the loss Wednesday against the Royals, allowing five runs on five hits and one walk in 4.2 innings. He struck out four.
Impact Civale has now yielded at least four runs in three of his last four outings, which comes on the heels of a three-start streak with no earned runs. Through 67 innings overall since landing with the White Sox, the 33-year-old right-hander has a shaky 5.37 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 55:26 K:BB over 67 frames. Civale is next set to toe the rubber against the division-rival Twins, who do have a weak .693 OPS since the beginning of August.

Serves up grand slam in no-decision Civale took a no-decision Friday against the Twins, allowing four runs on five hits and four walks in five innings. He struck out five.
Impact Civale was able to make it through three scoreless innings to begin his outing, but a Royce Lewis grand slam in the fourth inning left a major mark on the hurler's ledger. The veteran right-hander has now fanned at least five in five of his last six starts, though the four walks Friday did tie a season high. Civale has a 5.05 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 51:25 K:BB over 62.1 innings for the White Sox this year, and he'll likely remain a volatile fantasy option next week at home versus the division-rival Royals.
