McCarthy signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Feb. 23.
McCarthy owns a 3.80 ERA in 191.2 career major-league innings, all of which came with the Royals. The last of those innings came in 2020, as he spent 2021 struggling to a 7.12 ERA in 43 Triple-A innings with the Red Sox's and White Sox's organizations. If he's able to rebound, the 30-year-old righty should have a shot at carving out a role in the rebuilding Cubs' bullpen.
