Matt Festa Designated for assignment
The Cubs designated Festa for assignment Tuesday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Ryan Pressly. It's the second time this month that Festa has been designated for assignment, as he was acquired from the Rangers in early January after being booted from their 40-man roster. He posted a 5.70 ERA and 1.23 WHIP across 23.2 innings between the Mets and Rangers in 2024.
Matt Festa Signs with Friars
Festa signed a minor-league contract with the Padres on Friday and received an invitation to major-league spring training.
Analysis: Festa pitched in parts of four seasons for the Mariners before being DFA'd in August, accumulating a 4.32 career ERA and 1.32 WHIP in 93.2 total innings. He'll get a chance to make the Padres' Opening Day roster, though his role likely caps out as a middle reliever.
