The Cubs claimed Wingenter off waivers Friday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Wingenter was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on Tuesday, but he was picked up by the Cubs three days later and will presumably play for Triple-A Iowa. Across his 30 minor-league outings this season, Wingenter has a 3.03 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 59:19 K:BB across 38.2 innings.
