  The Cubs released Joseph on Thursday. Joseph was one of seven known non-roster players cut loose by the Cubs as the organization looks to shed payroll in the event no minor-league season is played in 2020. The 31-year-old utility man had previously appeared in 42 MLB games across the past two seasons with the Orioles, Athletics, Pirates and Giants, slashing .171/.207/.256 in those contests.

  Joseph joined the Cubs as a non-roster invitee Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. Joseph suited up for three big-league teams last season (Oakland, San Francisco and Pittsburgh) but played a total of just 28 games. In 68 plate appearances, he hit .156/.191/.250. The Cubs likely view him simply as organizational depth.
