Cubs, Cuban pitcher agree to terms

Published Mar. 3, 2010 4:13 p.m. ET

The Chicago Cubs have agreed to terms with Cuban defector Juan Yasser Serrano, a right-handed pitcher.

The 21-year-old Serrano must pass a physical exam and complete all necessary paperwork before Wednesday's deal becomes official. The Cubs hope the process will be finished well before the end of spring training.

The 6-foot-1 Serrano, who defected last year, would start the season at Class A Daytona after going through extended spring training in Arizona.
