Andrew Chafin - Page 12 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Back with Cubs Chafin signed a major-league deal with the Cubs on Tuesday, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 30-year-old was traded from Arizona to Chicago in August but covered only three innings after being acquired. Chafin appeared in 77 games for Arizona during 2019 and had a 3.76 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 68:18 K:BB across 52.2 innings, but the three-batter minimum will continue to limit his usage as a specialist.

Takes loss in relief Chafin (1-2) recorded two outs prior to giving up a walk-off solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Pirates.

Impact Making his first appearance since August 20 after dealing with a sprained finger, Chafin was a strike away from a scoreless ninth before Jacob Stallings pulled a game-winning home run into the stands. Chafin carries a 7.56 ERA into the final days of the season.

Makes team debut Chafin worked around a hit and a walk to pitch a scoreless inning in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Twins.

Impact It was Chafin's first appearance since Aug. 17, as he missed time due to a sprained left index finger, and it also happened to be his first appearance for the Cubs, who acquired him as part of an Aug. 31 trade. With Rowan Wick (oblique) possibly out for the rest of the season, Chafin could quickly earn an important role in the Chicago bullpen if he pitches well.

Has trouble against lefties Chafin (0-1) was credited with the loss to the Rangers on Wednesday when he gave up three runs on two hits and a walk without retiring a batter.

Impact After racking up two holds in his first three appearances, the left-handed Chafin was brought in to protect another lead with dangerous lefties due up. However, he walked the first batter, Rougned Odor, then served up a game-tying home run to Joey Gallo. Under new rules, the reliever had to stay in the game to face a third batter, and Chafin gave up a double to Todd Frazier, who later came around to score.
